SOUTH Kent Hospitals NHS Trust has selected British Car Contracts to supply its fleet of vehicles over the next three years. The change comes following the decision by the National Health Service Transport Managers' Association to set up its own car lease scheme in a deal for more than 10,000 cars.

This scheme reduced the number of contract hire companies supplying NHS Trusts from 42 to nine, one of which is BCC. It will now be supplying South Kent Trust with up to 300 vehicles including Fords, Vauxhalls and Renaults.
