North of England Commissioning Support (NECS) is a care system support organisation hosted by NHS England and is working for and on behalf NHS England - North East and Yorkshire (the Contracting Authority), who are conducting a Request for Information (RFI) exercise in order to gain a better understanding of the capacity and appetite of the market to deliver SARC Service across the geographical police force area of Cumbria. The provider must provide a high-quality cost-effective service model operating 365(6)/24-7 for adults and children.

Victims will have the opportunity to undergo a forensic medical examination whether or not they wish to make a formal report to the police at that time.
