Interested parties must submit their quotations by 4th October 2019.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses, particularly those in the education, promotional services, and health sectors, that can deliver innovative outreach programmes tailored to students. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are encouraged to participate, as they often possess the agility and community connections necessary to engage effectively with diverse student groups, particularly those with special educational needs.

## Notice
