Summary of the contracting process

The Home Office is initiating a tender for "Support for Victims and Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse" targeted at non-statutory sector organisations in England and Wales. This opportunity is classified under the industry category of "Other community, social and personal services" and is part of an active procurement process. The tender period ends on 5th May 2017, with grant funding of £600,000 available for proposals that address a wide geographical area across a minimum of three Police and Crime Commissioner regions. Successful proposals will be awarded grants with the contract period running from 1st June 2017 to 31st March 2018.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for voluntary organisations capable of providing support services to victims and survivors of child sexual abuse across multiple regions. As it specifically seeks to cater to organisations that may struggle to bid for funding through local commissioners, it is well-suited for medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) that can effectively demonstrate their capacity to implement scalable support initiatives. Interested parties are encouraged to register on the Crown Commercial Services eSourcing portal to access further details and application guidance.

Notice Title

Support for Victims and Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse

Notice Description

The Home Office is seeking to award grant funding to non-statutory sector organisations in England and Wales working across a large geographical area to provide support to victims and survivors of child sexual abuse (SVSCSA). This follows the success of the SVSSA fund administered during 2016/17 financial year. For 2017/2018, PS4.7m has been provided proportionally to all 43 Police and Crime Commissioners (PCCs) to administer to local provision for supporting victims. We know that this funding stream will not be suitable for some organisations that work with victims and survivors across a wider geographic area, and therefore may find it difficult to bid successfully to Police and Crime Commissioners. Therefore, we have withheld PS600k specifically to allow for voluntary organisations to submit a proposal for this purpose for 2017/2018, and if successful, they will be allocated funding centrally via a Grant Agreement from the Home Office. All bids must be for one year only, and bidders must be able to demonstrate the ability to spend their entire potential award by the end of the 2017/18 financial year. Organisations wishing to apply must operate over a large geographic area, which must, as a minimum, be 3 PCC areas. While there will not be a formal cap placed on the amount an organisation can bid for, we expect all bids to be scalable. More details about scalability will be made available in the published documents. The process leading to the award of the grant will be administered using Crown Commercial Services eSourcing portal. To take part in this grant funding opportunity please see the notice below which provides important instructions for registration on the portal. Please read all information in this notice carefully. Please also find attached guidance for using the eSourcing portal. For questions or problems regarding registration please email SVSSA@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk Additional information: How to Apply. On successful registration on the eSourcing portal you should request documents for the fund, which will include application guidance, by emailing SVSSA@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk. Applications for the fund will be submitted via the eSourcing portal only.
