## Summary

Leicestershire County Council is currently in the planning stage of a public procurement process titled "Provider Engagement Event - Residential Overnight Short Breaks for Disabled Children." This engagement is aimed at providers of residential overnight short breaks for young people aged 9-18 and is set to take place on 7th June 2018. Interested parties must submit their bookings by the 4th of June 2018.
