What the notice says

Please note, this is Market Engagement Opportunity not a Tender Opportunity. The Borough Council of Calderdale is seeking to review and develop the Community Based Day Opportunities Service for adults aged 18+. Community Based Day Opportunities are flexible, personalised daytime support services and activities for adults with care needs (disabilities, autism, dementia, or older age). Community Based Day Opportunities are not outreach services and are non-residential activities and services.

How to bid

  1. Read the full notice on Find a Tender, including any tender documents it links to.
  2. Register your organisation on the Central Digital Platform (through Find a Tender) if you have not already. Suppliers need to be registered to take part in procurements under the Procurement Act 2023.
  3. Follow the submission instructions in the notice; it does not name an e-tendering portal.
