two.1.4) Short description
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.
