## Summary

The procurement process initiated by Brighton & Hove City Council seeks to procure a provider for the "Independent Travel Training - BHCC Home to School Transport Service," which is classified under health and social work services. The anticipated contract, valued at £40,000 excluding VAT, is currently in the planning stage, with a tender period ending on 5 April 2022. The service aims to support children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) in travelling independently to school settings, thus promoting better access to education in the Hove region.
