## Summary

Surrey County Council procured specialist SEND client transport services for three pupils travelling to Philip Southcote in access 8. The route includes a passenger who uses a wheelchair and also has a walking frame, alongside two other pupils and a personal assistant. The service involves passenger transport with a personal assistant allocated for harmony. Pick-up arrangements cover two addresses in Chertsey and one in Woking, with delivery to the school destination. This is a local authority passenger transport requirement suited to operators able to provide safe, reliable and appropriately supported journeys for children with special educational needs and disabilities. The procurement falls within transport services and was bought by Surrey County Council.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold limited competition under the light-touch regime. One lot was awarded to Hughes Mini Services Ltd. The award is active and the contract was signed on 13 August 2026 for £58,474.80 including tax. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. Surrey County Council is the buyer, and the contracted service is titled Client Transport Services 2026–2034 – SEND. The award covers the single route serving three pupils and a personal assistant. The published outcome identifies Hughes Mini Services Ltd as the selected supplier; no separate award split or additional supplier is recorded for this requirement.

This award demonstrates demand from Surrey County Council for dedicated home-to-school transport for pupils with SEND, including passengers with mobility needs and journeys requiring a personal assistant. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need suitable vehicles and drivers for accessible or assisted passenger transport, robust safeguarding and reliability arrangements, and the operational capacity to coordinate multiple pick-up points with school arrival requirements. Experience transporting children or vulnerable passengers would strengthen a supplier’s position, particularly where wheelchair and walking-frame users must be supported safely. Local coverage around Chertsey, Woking and the destination school would help with efficient route planning. The successful supplier is an SME, indicating that this type of route can be delivered by a focused local operator rather than only a large transport company.
