Description

Warwickshire County Council (WCC) is seeking to commission a multi provider framework for Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) for families with school aged children eligible for Free School Meals. Providers who are already on the framework do not need to reapply. The activities will be available at Easter, Summer and Christmas holidays. We are looking for providers who: • run a holiday club • would be interested in running a holiday club for children in your local area • are a youth leader or could visit holiday clubs to teach or deliver a session in crafts, sports, cookery or life skills or have resources to share that could help run a Holiday Club • have a venue, but aren't able to provide activities.

Total Quantity or Scope

This is an open process to commission a multi provider framework for Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) for families with school aged children eligible for Free School Meals. The activities will be available at Easter, Summer and Christmas holidays. During the course of the contract period the range and scope of these services may be subject to modification and variation to meet the changing needs and requirements of the Council, potential changes in legislation and the changing demands placed on the Council by its customers. After this tendering process has been completed and the contracts have been awarded the Council will be running further competitions from time to time for the same service. This is to allow new providers to apply to join the framework and to allow those who are unsuccessful first time around to re-apply. This process will include the same documentation as this tender (with the exception of dates etc). These competitions will be live for the period of 3 to 6 months. However, if the Council receives a high level interest for the service the Council reserves the right to close the competition at an earlier date. Additional information: The initial contract term will be for remainder of the original 2 years framework period to 30 November 2025 however the Council reserves the right to extend the contract by further periods not exceeding 24 months (24 being the maximum available extension period) at the discretion of the Council based on available funding and the contract performance of the successful applicant(s).
