The services will primarily address the needs of vulnerable individuals within the community, ensuring their voices are heard and their rights are defended. The delivery location is within the Yorkshire and the Humber region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in advocacy, social care, and health services to engage with local government.
