Overview
Short breaks (play and leisure) and domiciliary care for Leicestershire disabled children and young people and their families are being provided through a framework that started on 1 April 2017. This framework has an initial period of two years with options to extend for a period, or periods, of up to two further years in total.
The framework includes an annual "refresh" which allows for the framework to be reopened so that additional providers can tender for inclusion on the framework. Leicestershire County Council's Children and Family Services are re-opening this framework for the first time and will be refreshing the Short Breaks (Lot 1) and Domiciliary Care (Lot 2) only.
We would like to invite you to an information event to find out more about it. We will also be providing guidance on how your organisation can take this opportunity to tender to be appointed to the framework for the remainder of its term. The event is being held on Tuesday 10 October 2017 from 3.00pm to 4.00pm at GreenTowers, Hinckley Club 4 Young People, Richmond Road, Hinckley, LE10 0DZ.
