In plain English
Kirklees Council wants to appoint a provider to run its Young Carers Service, which identifies and supports children and young people under 18 who have a caring role for a family member. The contract is worth about £138,000 a year, starting 1 April 2027 and running to 31 March 2030, with options to extend for up to two more years.
What the buyer wants
• Identify young people up to 18 with a caring role and provide them with support • Work with carers, their families and other services using whole-family approaches that meet the needs of carers of different ages • Work with the adult carers information, advice and advocacy service to make sure transition arrangements are effective
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: The notice asks for suppliers with relevant experience and sufficient capacity to deliver the service, so a small business with no track record of supporting young carers or similar children's services would most likely be ruled out, and the notice gives no other specific thresholds.
Always check the tender documents.
