## Summary

The Southampton City Council is in the planning stage of the procurement process for the "Southampton Play & Youth Opportunities" project, which aims to enhance play and youth services for children and young people in Southampton, located in the South East of England. The engagement end date is set for 14 May 2019, with a forthcoming tender publication anticipated at the end of summer 2019. Interested parties can participate in a market engagement meeting on 14 May 2019 to discuss the procurement progress and proposed timetable.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that are capable of providing welfare services for children and young people. By engaging with this procurement process, companies can position themselves to deliver essential services that will positively impact the local community, potentially leading to long-term partnerships with the Southampton City Council.

## Notice

Southampton City Council is intending to commission play and youth services in the city. The approach has been developed following market consultation meetings held in 2017 and 2018 and discussions with the Southampton City Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG). The council and CCG aim to jointly procure services that will improve play and youth opportunities for children and young people in Southampton. It is intended to publish the tender for this procurement later this year, at the end of the summer. In the meantime, interested providers are invited to attend a meeting on Tuesday 14 May 2018 at 2:30pm to hear an update on the progress towards procurement, the proposed timetable and have the opportunity to ask questions. If you would like to attend please book a place at our Eventbrite page (max 2 places per organisation): https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/play-and-youth-opportunities-update-tickets-60920876983
