## Summary

The procurement process is currently in the planning stage, led by Harrow Council, for the tender titled "Short Breaks for Children and Young People with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities." This initiative falls under the health and social work services industry and takes place in Harrow, UK. The planned activities include a market engagement event scheduled for 14 December 2021, where interested organisations can learn about potential funding opportunities and contribute to service design aimed at supporting disabled children and young people. The delivery addresses are primarily located within the UK, and the framework for this service will span four years.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses that specialise in providing health and social care services, particularly those focused on short breaks for disabled children and young people. Organisations with expertise in creating inclusive recreational activities, care provisions, and family support services would be particularly well-suited to compete. Participation in the market engagement session will allow prospective bidders to better understand the requirements and expectations of Harrow Council, thus enhancing their ability to tailor responsive and effective service proposals.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

Short breaks provide opportunities for disabled children and young people to spend time away from their primary carers. These include day, evening, overnight or weekend activities and take place in the child's own home, the home of an approved carer, a residential or community setting. Provision of short breaks are part of an integrated programme of support which is regularly reviewed and are additional services that are over and above the universal services expected and available to all families. Through this commissioning process we want to find ways to fund services that provide children and young people the opportunity to access a range of fun, exciting activities whilst developing their personal skills making friends. These services also need to ensure parents/carers have a meaningful break from their ongoing provision of care.

Renewal: Framework will be 4 years
