## Summary

The Tameside Metropolitan Borough Council is currently inviting tenders for the "Career Guidance Support Service," aimed at providing crucial support to priority groups of young people in Tameside, located in the North West of the United Kingdom.

This competitive dialogue tender is open until 19th July 2019, with the subsequent contract scheduled to commence on 10th May 2020 and last until 9th December 2024.
