Summary of the contracting process

The Norfolk County Council is currently inviting tenders for the "Grant Funding for the Aspire Project," which falls under the education and training services category. This procurement aims to support organisations working with young people affected by criminal exploitation to enhance their engagement in education, training, and employment. The bidding process is at the Tender stage, and interested parties should submit their expressions of interest by 2nd June 2022. The value of the funding available is up to £20,000, and the contract period is set to run from 1st July 2022 to 1st December 2023, focusing on the East of England region.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector organisations (VCSEs) specialising in education, youth services, and social support. Businesses that have expertise in providing tailored activities, life skills training, and trauma-informed care for vulnerable young people, particularly those recovering from issues related to substance misuse and gang involvement, would be strong competitors for this funding. Participating in this grant scheme could lead to substantial growth and impactful service delivery in the community.
