The service: • is for the provision of specialist overnight short breaks at a location away from the home, often in a residential setting for children and young people with SEND. It is intended to give parents and carers a break from their caring role and support in continuing to care for their child or young person. • Parents of children and young people with complex needs may need a break from their caring role, which can include caring for a child or young person who does not sleep through the night or need constant supervision and stimulation. • Children and young people with complex needs are less likely to spend time away from home with others of a similar age. • The provision of overnight short breaks at a location away from the home allows both parents and carers and children and young people a valuable break. It gives children and young people an opportunity to meet with friends and take part in leisure activities they may not normally have access to as well as having some independence from their families.

The service: * is for the provision of specialist overnight short breaks at a location away from the home, often in a residential setting for children and young people with SEND. It is intended to give parents and carers a break from their caring role and support in continuing to care for their child or young person. * Parents of children and young people with complex needs may need a break from their caring role, which can include caring for a child or young person who does not sleep through the night or need constant supervision and stimulation. * Children and young people with complex needs are less likely to spend time away from home with others of a similar age. * The provision of overnight short breaks at a location away from the home allows both parents and carers and children and young people a valuable break. It gives children and young people an opportunity to meet with friends and take part in leisure activities they may not normally have access to as well as having some independence from their families.",

The framework may be reopened at any time, either to increase the number of participating providers or to replace those who have been removed. This action may be taken at the Council's reasonable discretion, where it is deemed necessary to ensure the framework continues to support the Council in meeting its statutory duties-specifically, to maintain sufficient capacity in terms of available placements and provider coverage. The Framework is composed of two Lots. Lot 1: Overnight Short Breaks Service for children and young people with SEND aged 2-18 years: The provision will provide overnight short break services that give children and young people to take a break and support for Parent/Carers in their caring role, which could reduce the occurrence of family breakdown.

Each provider admitted to the framework must have a total evaluation score of 70% or above, with the three highest scoring providers awarded a place on the framework. We intend to award a Framework up to three (3) providers per Lot. This has been designed to ensure; continued competition, a basis of flexibility and also support the creation of sustainable business opportunities for new market entrants, into the City of Wolverhampton. Where the authority is not in the position to award to three, it reserves the right to award a lower number i.e. one or two. The framework may also be re-opened at any time, either to increase the number of participating providers or to replace those who have been removed. This action may be taken at the Council's reasonable discretion, where it is deemed necessary to ensure the framework continues to support the Council in meeting its statutory duties-specifically, to maintain sufficient capacity in terms of available placements and provider coverage. Providers successful to the framework will not be ranked and all referrals will be scheduled via a mini competition process."
