This programme aims to provide access to food and activities for children and young people eligible for Free School Meals over school holiday periods. The procurement method is an open procedure with a value of £500,000 in the services category. The tender deadline is 5th February 2024, and the contract period is from 4th March 2024 to 1st February 2025. This tender opportunity by Torbay Council presents a chance for businesses in the community, social, and personal services sector, particularly those offering social work and children's holiday camp services, to contribute to a meaningful cause. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate. Businesses looking to deliver face-to-face provisions in Torbay Area for children and young people should consider applying to fulfil the diverse needs outlined in the programme. ## Notice Torbay Council has been successful in obtaining grant funding by the Department for Education (DfE) to roll out a Holiday Activities and Food Programme for 2024. The purpose of the funding is to ensure that children and young people have access to food and activities over the school holiday periods where they are eligible for Free School Meals. Local Authorities require face-to-face provision over the school holidays. The number of children / young people eligible for the provision is estimated to be around 5,451. As a minimum, it's expected that roughly 20-25% of those eligible will take up the offer per School Holiday. To ensure spread of provision across the Torbay Area, the Authority expects there to be at least 6 projects in Torquay, 6 in Paignton and 2 in Brixham. In addition to this, to ensure that there are projects specifically dedicated to children and young people who have special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), the Authority expects there to be at least 3 provisions tailored to this. Torbay Council are also seeking some applications to specifically cater towards the older cohort (13 to 16 year olds), it is anticipated that there will be at least 2 projects delivered to this cohort.
