This tender aimed to provide healthy free holiday activities for children eligible for free school meals during the February 2026 half term, from 13th February to 22nd February. The procurement falls under the Health and Social Work Services category and uses a selective method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement.

The activities will take place in locations across Hampshire, including Eastleigh, Winchester, and the New Forest, among others, with postal code SO238UJ indicating one primary delivery address. A number of suppliers were awarded contracts, each responsible for different areas within Hampshire.

This tender offers significant business growth opportunities for organisations specialising in delivering educational and recreational services to children.

By engaging with this programme, organisations can enhance their visibility and tap into regional needs for child-focused programmes, establishing themselves in the community as reliable providers of essential services. Businesses that have experience in organising holiday activities or possess a strong background in social work services will be particularly competitive in such tender processes.
