## Summary

The Elsie Normington Foundation is initiating a tender for the construction of the Haven Centre, a specialist facility aimed at children and young people with learning difficulties, located in Smithton, Inverness, UK. This project involves the construction of indoor and outdoor play facilities, a community café, and three residential flats for respite accommodation. The tender is currently in the planning stage, with the submission deadline set for 23 July 2021. This procurement is classified under works, follows a restricted procedure, and has an estimated value of £4 million.

This tender presents significant opportunities for construction firms, social enterprises, and businesses specialising in inclusive design and child services. Companies experienced in delivering community-focused projects, particularly those that cater to individuals with additional needs, will find this procurement particularly relevant. The foundation’s commitment to community benefits suggests that contractors might also engage local labour, further enhancing their business profile and community ties while contributing positively to an essential project that supports children with learning disabilities.

## 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.
