## Summary

The City of Edinburgh Council is planning a procurement exercise for holiday support for disabled children and young people. The Council intends to launch a long-term contract lasting 5 years+1+1 to secure these services for the coming years. The procurement is aimed at the services category and will involve a pre-engagement event on October 19th, 2022.

This tender provides opportunities for businesses specialised in providing targeted support services for children with additional needs. Businesses offering holiday support schemes and partnering with the City of Edinburgh Council would be well-suited for this tender. The tender aims to create a long-term partnership for the provision of services during school holidays and half-terms excluding Christmas, with a focus on meeting the needs of children and their families.

## Notice

The City of Edinburgh Council ('The Council') has funded a school holiday play scheme for children and young people with a disability over the past 20 years. This service offers disabled children and young people the opportunity to take part in a range of fun activities within a structured environment. The Council intends to launch a procurement exercise to engage with the marketplace and put in place long-term contracts (5 years+1+1) to secure the provision of these services for the coming years. We would hope these long-term contracts are in place ready for the summer of 2023. Note - all information contained within this PIN may be subject to change.
