Description

The Mayor of London's Violence Reduction Unit (VRU) is seeking an Evaluation Partner for the Stronger Futures Programme. The VRU is seeking to procure a suitable Provider to undertake a detailed process and impact evaluation of the Stronger Futures programme, looking both across the separate fund interventions and the programme of activities as a whole. The programme will aim to fund grassroots organisations that work with young people aged 8-18-year-olds during after school hours and at weekends, to improve educational outcomes and reduce school exclusions, as well as to improve employability prospects and mental health and wellbeing.

Total Quantity or Scope

The VRU is seeking a Provider to design and deliver a high-quality mixed methods evaluation of the programme exploring both the process of implementation and impact of the programme in relation to its desired outcomes at individual and organisational levels. We would encourage collaborative bids, for example, a research consultancy paired with community and voluntary sector expertise. Specifically, the Provider should have: Demonstrable experience of working with young people at risk of being involved in serious violence or their parent(s) or carer(s). Knowledge and understanding of London's voluntary and community sector, particularly grassroots and community-led organisations who work with young people. Capacity to meet the stated timeframes through having existing, appropriately skilled, competent, and resourced staff in place. An understanding of the Public Health approach to violence reduction and prevention.
