## Summary

The Wiltshire Council has initiated a public procurement process for the "CS1731 Short break, Clubs and Activities Scheme" aimed at providing social, educational, and leisure activities for Children and Young People (CYP) with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND) in Wiltshire, excluding Swindon. The budget for this service is £900,000, with a procurement method of an open procedure. The contract period is from 1st April 2024 to 31st March 2026. The procurement stage is currently planning, with the tender period ending on 8th January 2024.

This public procurement opportunity is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations. Businesses in the welfare services, daycare services for handicapped children and young people, and children's holiday-camp services sectors are well-suited to compete. The contract offers the chance to provide bookable short break activity provision, positive activities for children aged 8-19 years, and positive activities for children aged 13-19 years with an Autistic Spectrum Condition.

## Notice

The overarching purpose of the service is to provide Children and Young People (CYP) with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND) with opportunities to take part in social and educational and leisure activities outside their home. These opportunities will be independent of the parents and carers of the CYP with SEND which will also provide them with a break. The activities on offer will be led by service users with the provider encouraging ambition and encouraging positive risk taking. They will be culturally appropriate and meet the racial, cultural, linguistic, gender, sexual orientation and religious needs of the CYP. They will provide opportunities for new experiences, promote friendships and supportive relationships. The activities will promote inclusion and promote skills to enable CYP with SEND to participate more fully in the community. Wiltshire (excluding Swindon) has over 15,000 CYP identified and as having SEN support and have been issued with a SEN plan. Of this number there are over 3500 CYP that have been with issued with an EHCP. Wiltshire is a large and rural county and services need to offer provision to a large geographical area. Transport links continue to develop and improve but travelling around Wiltshire continues to pose a challenge to the community. The Service is divided into 3 parts, A,B and C. These 3 parts of the service, form the Short Breaks Clubs and Activities Scheme for CYP and SEND. Part A: Bookable short break Activity Provision Part B: Positive Activities for Children Aged 13 - 18 years Part C: Positive Activities for Children aged 8 -18 years with an Autistic Spectrum Condition
