• The Tall Ships Races Sunderland 2018

The purpose of the on-site Event medical, ambulance and First Aid support and management is to minimise the effects of the Event on the healthcare resources of the local population.

The Council is looking to appoint one suitably qualified and experienced Provider to co-ordinate all the event medical requirements, provide the Events' medical, ambulance and First Aid support resource and the management of the resource for and during the Events.

One Provider must be able to provide the whole event contractual, management, co-ordination and resource provision from within its own capacity or with the use of subcontracting or consortia or other arrangements. As a minimum this must include the planning for recommending the appropriate provision of

a) First Aid personnel
