## Summary

NHS England, through the NHS Arden and Greater East Midlands Commissioning Support Unit, is currently in the planning stage for the "Veteran Health - Grants Round" tender.

Key dates include the engagement end date set for 31st August 2019, with a related questionnaire available for interested parties to submit their expressions of interest. The procurement process is classified under health and social work services (CPV code 85000000).

This tender presents significant opportunities for growth for third sector, voluntary, charitable, and community organisations specialising in health and wellbeing services.
