    Brief

    Southend-on-Sea City Council and Vecteo Limited are seeking qualified providers to deliver safe, reliable, and high-quality passenger transport services. The role includes transporting children in special educational needs (SEND), children in social care, and adults with learning disabilities. Providers must operate under strict safeguarding regulations, complying with the Children Act 1989, the Care Standards Act 2000, and the Education Act 1996. Services required include both multi-passenger home-to-school transport and other journeys, as well as single-passenger transport throughout Essex. Successful providers will need to demonstrate expertise in safeguarding, regulatory compliance, and experience transporting vulnerable passengers. This is an opportunity to support essential transport services for some of the most vulnerable members of the community.
