## Summary

The procurement process initiated by Health Education England focuses on the "Perinatal Clinical Psychology Programme," aimed at providing vital education and training services within the healthcare sector. This tender is currently in the planning stage, with a closing date set for midday on 14 March 2022. The programme is planned to commence on 1 April 2022 and will run for a duration of two years until 1 April 2024, with a financial envelope of £569,256 excluding VAT.
