## Summary

The City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council has awarded a contract for the provision of a Respitality Service aimed at supporting unpaid carers in West Yorkshire. The service will connect carers to hospitality, tourism, culture, and leisure businesses willing to offer free break opportunities. This initiative, conducted under an open procedure, falls under the Health and Social Work Services industry category and extends to other community, social, and personal services. The contract, with a value of £250,700, was awarded to Carers Leeds and will run from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2027, covering the region of Yorkshire and the Humber.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for companies operating within the hospitality, tourism, and leisure sectors capable of providing services to support carers. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as well as voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), are particularly well-suited to compete for related future opportunities given the Council's emphasis on inclusive support. The contract’s focus on creating a dedicated digital platform also opens opportunities for tech companies specialising in digital solutions for the health and social care sector.

## Notice
