The Baby Pack Scheme is a cornerstone of Rotherham’s commitment to provide all children with the best possible start in life. Recognising that many families struggle to access even the most basic necessities, this scheme aims to ease the early burden of parenthood and promote healthy child development from the very beginning.
The Council are seeking a Provider who has the capability and competency to plan, source, store and deliver the baby pack scheme in Rotherham for maximum start date of 1st September 2024.
The baby pack scheme consists of purchasing and delivering an agreed Baby Pack to parents, foster parents, kinship carers, and newborn babies.

It is anticipated that the contract will commence on 02/09/2024 and will run for a period of 24 months of the initial contract term making the expiry date 01/09/2026 (the pilot period). The contract may be extended by 36 months in any combination, subject to the completion of a successful pilot period and at the sole discretion of the Council making the latest possible expiry date 01/09/2029.
Bidders are advised that the budget available for the provision of this contract is £360,000 per annum giving a potential contract value of £720,000 for the initial 24 months contract term (the pilot period).
