## Summary

The NHS West Yorkshire Integrated Care Board recently completed a procurement process for the provision of adult bereavement services in Leeds, under the classification of community health services. The process, aimed at ensuring the availability of timely and relevant support for bereaved adults registered with a Leeds General Practice, concluded with the formal award of a contract on 10th March 2026. This procurement was undertaken as part of the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, and implemented through the Direct Award C Process. The two-year contract, valued at £201,198, was awarded to Cruse Bereavement Support, commencing 1st April 2026 until 31st March 2028.

Companies capable of delivering high-quality information and counselling services, both in one-to-one and group settings, can potentially secure similar contracts in future rounds. Organisations that have an established presence in the healthcare sector, especially SMEs with experience in service provision in public health settings, such as Cruse Bereavement Support, are particularly well-positioned to benefit from involvement in such procurement processes. This contract underscores the importance of maintaining high service standards and regulatory alignment to ensure continued opportunities for business growth within the healthcare service industry.
