This initiative covers services such as daytime short breaks, outward bounds, and activity-based residential experiences through three distinct lots. The procurement, conducted via an open procedure with a budget of £7,428,000, involved an award phase on 26 June 2025. This framework is designed as a pseudo-framework, allowing Sheffield City Council the flexibility to readvertise to meet changing demands. The authority had given an initial tender submission deadline of 31 January 2025. Businesses specialising in daycare, social work, and recreational services, especially those equipped to cater to children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), can find this framework a profitable opportunity. With multiple active suppliers already involved, including organisations like Amys House, Element Society, and Sheffield Mencap and Gateway, businesses with experience in handling club sessions, activity-based programs, and residential camp facilities would be ideal candidates. This procurement not only provides a significant contract value but also the opportunity for businesses to establish a long-term relationship with a regional authority, promoting social inclusion through tailored services in the Sheffield area. ## Notice Delivery of short break for provision for families caring for a child with a disability. The framework includes three Lots: Day time Short Breaks (mixed needs weekend and school holiday clubs), Outward Bounds (school holiday activities) and Activity Based Residential (overnight school holiday activities). ### Lot Information Day time Short Breaks Group based club for C&YP with SEND on weekends, evenings and school holidays Outward Bounds Day time school holiday activities providing safe and exciting access to outward bound type activities with qualified instructors, adapted equipment (where appropriate) in green spaces with adapted group based spaces to meet care needs Activity Based Residential To deliver a 2-night stay on a weekend or school holidays with activities including indoor and outdoor, access to green spaces and a safe residential experience with adaptations where needed for C&YP with SEND ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/035447-2025 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 26 Jun 2025 | | Submission deadline | 31 Jan 2025 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 30 Apr 2025 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £7,428,000 | | Lots value | £7,428,000 | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £7,428,000 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Active, Unsuccessful | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SHEFFIELD CITY COUNCIL | | Locality | SHEFFIELD | | Post town | Sheffield | | Postcode | S1 2HH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE3 South Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE32 Sheffield | | Local authority | Sheffield | | Electoral ward | City | | Westminster constituency | Sheffield Central | | Delivery location | TLE32 Sheffield | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 15 | | Supplier names | AMYS HOUSE; AUTISTIC CHILDREN AND CARERS TOGETHER; ELEMENT SOCIETY; HOSPITABLE; INCLUSIVE COMMUNITY CARE; MASKK: MANOR AFTER SCHOOL & KIDS KLUBS; REACH OUT CHILDCARE SERVICES; SHEFFIELD MENCAP AND GATEWAY; SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY FC COMMUNITY PROGRAMME; SPORT WORKS; STEPHEN HARRISON ACADEMY; THE BURTON STREET FOUNDATION; THE ENDORPHINS GROUP; WINCLUDED; WOODTHORPE DEVELOPMENT TRUST | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services - 92 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ### Codes - 85311000 - Social work services with accommodation - 85312000 - Social work services without accommodation - 85312110 - Child daycare services - 85312120 - Daycare services for handicapped children and young people - 92000000 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ## Release History - 26 Jun 2025 at 13:32 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/035447-2025 - 5 Feb 2025 at 17:46 - TenderUpdate - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/003884-2025 - 28 Jan 2025 at 13:31 - TenderUpdate - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/002836-2025 - 20 Dec 2024 at 18:16 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/041312-2024 ## Notice URLs - http://Director - http://sheffield.gov.uk - https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=88835&B=UK - https://www.sheffield.gov.uk - https://yortender.eu-supply.com/ctm/Company/CompanyInformation/Index/104130 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
