## Summary

The Northamptonshire County Council is currently soliciting tenders for the "NCC - Parent Champion Project," aimed at encouraging the uptake of early education for children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). This initiative falls under the community, social, and personal services category and is set to take place in the East Midlands region of the United Kingdom. The procurement process, which follows an open method, is at the tender stage, with quotations due by 20th May 2019. Successful bidders will commence contract activities on 7th June 2019, running until 13th December 2019, and a budget of £8,000 has been allocated for this project.

This tender represents a valuable opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) to contribute to community-oriented services that support families with SEND children. Businesses focused on social services, capacity building, and community engagement are particularly well-suited to compete, as they can leverage their expertise to recruit, train, and support parent champions across Northamptonshire.

## Notice

Northamptonshire County Council, Children First Northamptonshire, invites quotations for the provision of Parent Champions to encourage take up of funded entitlement early years places for children with SEND under the age of 5 years old. The successful bidder will need to recruit, train and support volunteers to engage with parents who have a child/ren with SEND aged 2 to 4 years old to access an early year's provision place. The parent champions will need to be spread across Northamptonshire with at least two in each district or borough. The deadline for quotations to be submitted is 20th May 2019.
