Tenders are invited by Kirklees Council from Providers with the relevant experience and ability to demonstrate sufficient capacity for the provision of day services for older people and adults with physical disability. There will be a maximum of four Contracts awarded for the delivery of Day Services under this Tender. Up to 2 Contracts will be awarded for the North Kirklees Lot and up to 2 Contracts awarded for the South Kirklees Lot.
