The Beds and Herts PTS contract came up for tender some time ago and we submitted a bid as we believe we are the best placed organisation to run these services – we have the right infrastructure, knowledge and experience, we understand the needs of these patients and we have the best staff to deliver this service across the region. We were expecting to hear the outcome of this tender over the summer, but the process is taking slightly longer than anticipated and we are likely to hear if we have been successful or not in December. We will keep you updated on the outcome once we know the results.
