## Summary

The Southend-on-Sea Borough Council is currently planning a market engagement event titled "Carers Projects Market Engagement Event," scheduled for 8th June 2018, from 09:30 to 12:00 at The Tickfield Centre in Southend-on-Sea, United Kingdom. This initiative aims to support unpaid carers, with funding of up to £50,000 available per project. The engagement period concludes on 23rd August 2018, and interested parties can register until 6th June by contacting Caroline Foley, Contracting Support Officer.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in health and social care services, particularly those focused on supporting unpaid carers. Organisations capable of providing innovative solutions to enhance the lives of these individuals will likely find this a fitting opportunity. The limited space at the event allows for one representative per organisation, ensuring targeted engagement with potential bidders.
