Description

Cornwall Council would like to commission a provider that can purchase and distribute 12,711 Easter Holiday Wellbeing Packs for all children in Cornwall on free school meals through their school. These packs will be part of the Governments Holiday Activities and Food Programme 2021 as we know school holidays can have particular challenges for some families because of increased costs such as food and childcare and reduced incomes. Therefore, families on low incomes are: 1. less likely to access organised out-of-school activities; 2. more likely to experience 'unhealthy holidays' in terms of nutrition and physical health; 3. and more likely to experience social isolation and will support children and young people in Cornwall to: • eat more healthily over the school holidays; • be more active during the school holidays; • take part in engaging and enriching activities which support the development of resilience, character and wellbeing along with their wider educational attainment; • be safe and not to be socially isolated; • have greater knowledge of health and nutrition; and • be more engaged with school and other local services. The provider will provide a durable container/drawstring branded bag that contains a selection of the following items: • 3 x balls (1 tennis ball, 1 large tennis ball/mini football, 1 windball/reactor ball) • 4 x spots • 3 x bean bags • 1 x skipping rope • 1 x frisbee • 1 x small plastic tennis racket/paddle • 1 x portable table tennis set • 1 x branded pedometer • Selection of large chalk Each bag will need to be compiled before delivering to all schools in the county on either Monday 29th, Tuesday 30th or Wednesday 31st March with a maximum budget of £7.50 per bag including delivery to schools across Cornwall. The provider will ensure BS standards are met and ensure the contents are of high quality and suitable for primary, secondary and special educational needs and disabled (SEND) children. The packs will include a Time2Move Holiday Camp resource booklet to promote local virtual opportunities to address poor diet, low levels of physical activity and reduce social isolation. These resources will be delivered to the provider to include in the wellbeing packs. Participation of this soft market assessment will not prejudice suppliers participating in any future procurement. The budget for this is up to £100,000.00 If you are interested in this area of service provision and also helping with our assessment of the market, please complete the "Information Required" section at the end of this notice along with any additional information you consider to be relevant and return this via the Due North system by 5pm on Thursday 4th March 2021.
