## Summary

The procurement process initiated by Leeds City Council is for the tender titled "Weekend and Residential Targeted Short Breaks," aimed at providing services related to social work and related activities for children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). This tender is currently in the active stage, with a deadline for submissions set for 20 September 2019. The total value of the contract is £600,000, and the successful provider is expected to commence services on 1 April 2020, lasting until 31 March 2023. The service delivery location is within the Yorkshire and the Humber region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in social care, residential services, or activities that promote child development and support families for disabled children. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly encouraged to participate, enabling them to contribute positively to the local community while expanding their operational capacity through this substantial contract.

## Notice

According to the Council for Disabled Children "Short breaks should not be used just as crisis intervention but should help carers to maintain and improve the quality of care they want to and can provide." Short Breaks are activities for children and young people with SEND that enable them to have fun, spend time with friends and build their confidence and skills in a safe environment. As well as promoting best outcomes for the child, the Children Act 1989 Schedule 2 requires Local Authorities to provide services designed to assist family carers of disabled children 'to continue to [provide care], or to do so more effectively, by giving them breaks from caring'.
