Summary of the contracting process

The Home Office is launching a Call for Proposals (CfP) for the Youth Endowment Fund for England and Wales, aimed at managing £200 million over a ten-year period to curb youth violence. The CfP commenced on 10 December 2018, with proposals due by midday on 25 January 2019. This initiative is situated in the realm of general public services and seeks to engage experienced organisations or partnerships that can deliver effective interventions for at-risk youth in locations across England and Wales.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for organisations that specialise in youth services, community support, or social welfare initiatives, particularly those positioned within the Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise (VCSE) sectors. Potential bidders who can demonstrate expertise in managing grant funding and creating impactful community programmes will be well-positioned to compete. Furthermore, attendance at the briefing session on 13 December 2018 will provide valuable insights into the fund's objectives and application process, enhancing the chances of a successful proposal.

Notice Title

Youth Endowment Fund for England and Wales

Notice Description

In October, the Home Secretary announced a PS200m Youth Endowment Fund. Delivered over 10 years, the Fund will deliver transformative change by focussing on those most at risk of involvement in youth violence, diverting young people away from becoming serious offenders. The YEF will be key in supporting delivery against the ambition of the serious violence strategy, providing funding for early intervention, working with the grain of effective local partnerships, whilst improving the evidence base for what works. Our desired core outcome would be a reduction in proven offending with a particular focus on serious violent offending, in comparison to an appropriate control group. To deliver this ambition, the Home Office will be launching a Call for Proposals (CfP) during the week commencing 10 December 2018, seeking to identify a suitably experienced organisation, consortium or partnership ('Bidder') who will have responsibility for managing the Fund itself and; a. deliver a programme of grants enabling interventions targeted at the desired cohort of children and young people in England and Wales; b. act as a centre of expertise, generating, disseminating and promoting new knowlege and practice that will transform local and national responses to tackling serious violence; c. ensure that evidence and knowledge is accessible to policy makers, service commissioners and front-line professionals on a free of charge basis; d. leverage impact by generating and securing additional funding and resources from appropriate sources and individuals to allow additional, longer term activity post the ten-year period; and e. provide annual reports to the Home Office covering take-up, quality of evidence produced and financial management including a cost benefit analysis of successful interventions. Please note that the YEF is not aimed at organisations who may subsequently be interested in bidding for funding to support interventions once the Fund becomes operational. Further information for those with an interest in bidding for funding to deliver interventions will be made available once the Fund is operational, at an appropriate time. Potential Bidders are invited to attend a briefing session to be held on 13 December 2018, at which further information will be provided about the Fund and the CfP as well as an opportunity to ask any questions. The briefing meeting will be held at a central London location. Bidders wishing to attend this event must register interest by emailing: YEFCompetition@homeoffice.gov.uk. This CfP is being managed using an online process via the Crown Commercial Service's (CCS) eSourcing Suite, known as Emptoris. Further details on how to register are included in the Other Information section of this notice. The deadline for submission of proposals will be midday on Wednesday 23 January 2019.
