City of Doncaster Council awarded a contract to Sheffield Children's Hospital for children's histopathology services to support the Coroner's jurisdiction in South Yorkshire (East), covering Doncaster and Rotherham.

The Coroner requires quality pathologist services for investigating violent or unnatural deaths, sudden deaths of unknown cause, and deaths in custody.

Existing digital and invasive autopsy contracts are limited to adult autopsies, and children's autopsy is a niche service not offered at all hospitals.

The contract value is £67,500.
