This contract, valued at £55,106 annually, is set to run from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2027, with a potential extension of a further 12 months subject to funding or need. Located at the West End Community Centre, Westminster Road, Morecambe, this process indicates a movement into the procurement stage of award, with final amendments clarified on 26th June 2026.
