Provider Engagement - Provision of Provider List for Break Time, Home Care and Short Breaks Services for Children and Young People with Disabilities.

Provider Engagement Provision of a Provider List for Break Time, Home Care and Short Breaks Services for Children and Young People with Disabilities.

Following a comprehensive review of short breaks, I am pleased to advise that Lancashire County Council's Cabinet has agreed changes to the short break offer for Children and Young People (CYP) with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). Please click here to view the Cabinet Report. Please also see link for details of the Short Breaks offer Details - Lancashire County Council Provider Engagement Event We remain committed to developing the short breaks services across Lancashire and want to be able to improve service quality for the CYP with SEND in Lancashire by working in partnership with providers. Therefore, please find below letter to interested providers inviting you to an engagement session about the recommissioning of home care and short breaks for children and young people.

It is our intention that a procurement process will follow this provider engagement event. The Council reserves the right to amend what is set out in the letter and subsequent engagement event. Any procurement process that may be conducted will only be in accordance with the procurement documents that are published. Please note that this is not a tender exercise and participation (or non-participation) in dialogue will confer no advantage or disadvantage should commissioners commence the formal procurement process.
