Charities delivering public services are facing serious challenges.  @ncvorebecca explains the issues and what the government's new procurement guidance for contracting authorities will mean in practice: https://blogs.ncvo.org.uk/2020/03/26/new-procurement-guidance-in-response-to-covid-19-implications-for-charities/
