1. Introduction

We spend in the region of £10 million per year on goods, works and services and we are aware of the impact that we can have on our local community by making sure that our contracts deliver value for money for our citizens. These pages provide useful information for suppliers on how to do business with us, what our rules are and what our strategies and policies are and information for citizens on how you might take over the running of some of our services.
