## Summary

St Helens Council is seeking expressions of interest for a Play Scheme Provision tailored for approximately 60 children and young people from both special and mainstream schools, focusing on those with Special Educational Needs Support and/or Education Health and Care Plans. The procurement is currently in the planning stage, with engagement set to conclude on 23 April 2019. The estimated budget for this service is £40,000, and the delivery addresses fall within the North West region of the United Kingdom. Interested parties should prepare for service implementation during the summer from late July to the end of August 2019.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health and social work services, as well as recreational and community services. Organisations experienced in providing support for children with special educational needs or those offering related training and staffing solutions would be particularly well-positioned to compete. The requirement for creative and tailored service solutions over a tight schedule allows businesses to showcase innovative approaches, potentially leading to long-term partnerships with St Helens Council.
