    Good morning

    I am trying to locate the person who is best to speak to in the Ashbourne, Derbyshire area for the Commissioning Support Services. I manage a community transport operation and would like to build links with the CSS and CCG so if you could help that would be great.

    Regards

    Jane Birch – General Manager [01335] 300670 or jane@ashbournect.org.uk

      Hi Jane, I’ll email you the contact details of the interim MD for Greater East Midlands CSS.

      All prospective CCGs can currently be contacted via the PCT cluster within which they operate. As each wave of prospective CCGs goes through the formal authorisation process, we will publish their contact details. Details of the PCT cluster that CCGs operate within can be found on our Resources for CCGs page under CCG Configuration.

      I hope this helps.
