This is a call for expressions of interest to attend a Market Engagement Event for NHS Lancashire and South Cumbria ICB’s Children and Young People’s THRIVE Emotional Wellbeing and Mental Health Framework and complete a short questionnaire.

This will include discussions around an infrastructure management/lead provider model. We are keen to hear from a full range of organisations including community based grassroots organisations as well as those that operate at a larger scale. This will include discussions around an infrastructure management/lead provider model.
