LOCALLY-based laboratory AlphaBiolabs, has once again been awarded the contract to provide drug, alcohol and DNA testing services for Warrington Borough Council.
Under the three-year contract, AlphaBiolabs will provide sample collection and back-to-lab analysis services for the Children’s Social Care team, in support of family cases.
The company was re-awarded the contract following a rigorous tender process.
Rachel Davenport, director at AlphaBiolabs, said: “As a Warrington-based business, our contract with Warrington Borough Council means a great deal, as it allows us to assist the Children’s Social Care team in their work with vulnerable children and families across our own borough.
“With over 20 years’ experience working with family law professionals, social services and local authorities, we fully understand the role that drug, alcohol and DNA testing plays in helping the council make important and often time-critical safeguarding decisions.
“We are delighted to be providing this service again over the next three years.”
Established in 2004, and headquartered at Carina Park, Westbrook, AlphaBiolabs is one of the UK’s leading providers of drug, alcohol and DNA testing services for members of the public, family law professionals, social workers, local authorities and the workplace sector.
It also operates 19 walk-in centres across the UK and Ireland – including a location at its head office in Westbrook – providing on-site sample collection appointments for drug, alcohol and DNA testing.
