At the Voluntary Sector meeting, on Monday 27 March 2017, providers were informed that the next HeadStart tender opportunity would be available in the spring and this letter is to invite you to a choice of two market consultation meetings either on the 21 April 2017, 9.30 – 12 noon in the Marston Room, Science Park, Wolverhampton or the 11 May 2017, 10 – 12 noon at the Marston Room too.

The market consultation meeting is to introduce the 3 “Lots” being procured, to discuss the draft service specifications and how best to tender the “Lots” required. It is intended that the contracts awarded will run for a possible 3-year period from September 2017 to the 31 August 2020. The Draft tender documents will be made available prior to the first meeting on the 21 April 2017.
