Notice Title

PIN Holiday support for disabled children and young people

Notice Description

The City of Edinburgh Council ('The Council') has funded a school holiday play scheme for children and young people with a disability over the past 20 years. This service offered disabled children and young people the opportunity to take part in a range of fun activities within a structured environment. There is a live contract for our current holiday hub programme which is open to children and young people with additional support needs. The Council is looking to scope the current market and ascertain interest from new providers who may wish to apply. It may be necessary to increase capacity of the service or to re-tender which will include incumbent providers. Note - all information contained within this PIN may be subject to change.
