Summary of the contracting process

The Home Office is currently managing the tender process for the "CSA Victims/Survivors Fund 2019/20," aimed at offering grant funding to support victims and survivors of child sexual abuse across England and Wales. This initiative falls within the "Other services" industry category and has a tender period ending on 28 March 2019. The contract is scheduled to begin on 1 April 2019 and continue until 31 March 2020. Interested organisations must operate across a significant geographical area, covering at least three Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) areas, and all proposals must demonstrate the ability to utilise the entire funding by the end of the financial year. The procurement will be conducted using the Crown Commercial Services eSourcing portal.

This tender presents valuable opportunities for non-statutory sector organisations, especially those engaged in support services for victims of child sexual abuse. Businesses that are well-suited to compete include small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) with the capacity to operate across extensive regions. The expectation for grant applications to be scalable allows for a variety of organisations to contribute effectively, promoting diversity in funding allocation. This is an excellent chance for eligible entities to enhance their service offerings and contribute to an essential societal cause.
