Description:
Dudley is seeking to commence a Foster Care Short Breaks service for children and young people with disabilities and complex health needs in Dudley. In Dudley this service is often referred to by families as a Staycation.

The Council will evaluate the award of the Agreement on the basis of the most economically advantageous Tender and reserves the right to make contract awards to no more than 3 successful Tenderers, this will form a framework, where referrals will be shared by Dudley to the providers, and the best fit will be sourced for the child/young person requiring the staycation. The Council reserves the right, subject to relevant legislation, at any time to reject any Tender.

All disabled children are considered to be a child 'in need' (see section 17 of the Children Act 1989) and therefore the Local Authority has a general duty to safeguard and promote their welfare by providing a range and level of services appropriate to their needs. If a disabled child or their parent requests an assessment then there is a duty to assess in each case, including any needs for carer support.

The Children Act 1989 and the Breaks for Carers of Disabled Children Regulations 2011 require local authorities to provide services designed to give breaks for carers of children with disabilities. The break should enhance the ability of parent carers to care for their disabled child and any other children they may have.
