- Local Authority experience, particularly in their engagement with schools
- Current Providers of breakfast clubs

- Other experience relevant to the running of school breakfast clubs

If you or your organisation believe you possess relevant experience and skillsets to be a member of this pool of advisers, we encourage you to register on the ECSC DPS under Lot ECSC-09 Programme Design and Development Services, following the instructions attached to this PIN and to register your interest on SSQ_528 to receive further communication on the project as we move forward.

Please note, this is a prior information notice to provide early indication to the market of the Department's intention to carry out a procurement, it is not a binding guarantee of future activity and remains subject to change.
