Procurement identifier (OCID): ocds-h6vhtk-05d232

Description

Torbay Council has been successful in obtaining grant funding by the Department for

Education (DfE) to roll out a Holiday Activities and Food Programme for 2026.

The purpose of the funding is to ensure that children and young people have access to

food and activities over the school holiday periods where they are eligible for Free School

Meals. Local Authorities require face-to-face provision over the school holidays. The

number of children / young people eligible for the provision is estimated to be around

5,451. As a minimum, it's expected that roughly 20-25% of those eligible will take up the

offer per School Holiday.

Torbay Council are procuring an open framework of providers for this requirement. The

time period of the framework and the reopening arrangements are subject to confirmed

funding from the DfE
