## Summary

The Life Changes Trust, a central purchasing body based in Glasgow, has completed a public procurement process titled "Invitation to tender to establish and resource a Dementia Inclusive Choir Network." This procurement falls under the services category and aims to promote and support the establishment of a choir network that is inclusive of individuals living with dementia across Scotland. The procurement was conducted using an open procedure, with the total contract value amounting to £220,000. The tender was active with a submission deadline that concluded on 16 November 2018, and the award decision was made shortly thereafter on 30 January 2019.

This initiative offers significant opportunities for organisations focused on dementia care and the arts, particularly those equipped to provide training and resources for choir leaders and volunteers.
