## Summary

The Elsie Normington Foundation is seeking tenders for the construction of the "Haven Centre," a specialist play and social centre for children and young people with learning difficulties, located in Smithton, Inverness. This procurement process is currently in the Tender stage, with a closing date for submissions set for 23rd July 2021. The project, valued at £4 million, encompasses various construction works, including the erection of three residential flats for respite accommodation. Interested parties must register and submit electronic responses, with the process governed by a restricted procedure.

This tender presents significant opportunities for companies in the construction and community development sectors, particularly those with experience in building facilities catering to children and young people with special needs. Businesses that specialise in inclusive design, residential construction, or community-engaged projects will find this procurement especially relevant. By participating, these companies can contribute to a meaningful initiative that aims to enhance the lives of young individuals with learning disabilities while potentially expanding their client base within the public sector.

## Notice

"Haven" specialist play & social centre for children & young people with learning difficulties incorporating indoor / outdoor play facilities and community Cafe. Erect 3 no. residential flats providing respite accommodation. Children and Young people with learning disabilities need a place to 'call their own'. Although many with learning disabilities can be meaningfully integrated in mainstream environments, a specialist place to play and socialise is crucial to their individual inclusion within their limited world. Providing such a place to develop potential and purposeful activity with fun, laughter, enjoyment, safety and protection is paramount in their development as they grow through their childhood and teenage years. The Haven Project will provide a specially adapted indoor and outdoor play facility which will also include a community cafe. This cafe will encourage volunteering with adults from the community and also provide some supported places for young adults with LD. Three residential flats will also provide valuable overnight respite accommodation to give parents a much needed break from their caring responsibilities and the young people can still access the leisure facilities while on a short break.
