Description
The competition will be conducted in accordance with the Light Touch Regime (LTR) as implemented in the UK by the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 My Ends is the second iteration of our ambitious, flagship programme which will run from April 2024 until March 2026. It promotes highly local, place based approaches to reducing violence. The programme will be targeted in six to eight neighbourhoods across London which have experienced high and sustained levels of violence. It is non-prescriptive and empowers voluntary and community sector (VCS) providers to come together to build a Network tasked with developing locally-tailored approaches that meet the needs of the community. The VRU is currently in the process of identifying these areas and commissioning the VCS led Networks to commence delivery in April 2024. To support the programme, the VRU is seeking to commission external Provider(s) to provide a series of support & evaluation packages.
