About
London Borough of Lewisham awarded a contract to GM Coachwork group for the purchase of a minibus to support the Short Breaks Service In House Provision, which provides evening, holiday, and Saturday sessions for children with complex needs and disabilities.
The service previously used a lease vehicle for five years, and purchasing a vehicle reduces costs to the council.
The minibus addresses travel difficulties for children who become overstimulated on public transport, which can lead to unsafe behaviors.
The contract value is £58,660, procured under PA 2023 via RFQ.
