Midlothian Council seeks a provider to offer a holiday provision for children and young people with disabilities. The service will be provided for 6 weeks of holiday provision - 2 weeks at Easter and 4 weeks in the Summer holidays. Lot 1: The provider is required to provide a holiday provision for 30 children per day for children and young people with a disability.

The aim should be to provide a nurturing environment that meets diverse needs and promotes positive outcomes for all participants.
