What the notice says

This is an award notice for the provision of a Specialist Community Based Holiday Club during school holidays for Children and Young People with a Disability. This contract supports children and young people resident within the Local Authority area of Shropshire, excluding The Borough of Telford & Wrekin. Support provision will be largely delivered in Shropshire with the flexibility to access community activities outside of the area to achieve a varied and attractive short breaks holiday club offer. This service forms an integral part of the overall short breaks offer for children and young people with a disability and their families. It ensures that the council meets its statutory duty for the provision of short breaks during school holidays, providing both fun activities and opportunities for children with a disability and enabling parent carers a break from their caring responsibilities.
