## Summary

The Care Quality Commission (CQC) is seeking suppliers for the "National Guardian Development Day," a procurement opportunity aimed at providing development, planning, and delivery services for Freedom to Speak up Guardians within NHS trusts and foundation trusts. This contract, classified under staff development services and training, has a total value of £10,000 and is being pursued through a limited competitive quotation process.

The delivery is expected in London, United Kingdom.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in staff development services, particularly those with experience in creating and delivering training programmes within the healthcare sector.

It is essential that the day is run independently of the National Guardian's Office (NGO) to ensure impartiality and fairness.
