This project, covering 2024-2028 with potential renewal for an additional year, entails comprehensive support, advice, and advocacy centred on accommodation, planning, rights, and service access. It encourages community engagement, addresses hate crimes, racism, and supports policy adaptation in favour of the Gypsy, Roma, and Traveller communities. The tender follows an open procedure and is classified under "Provision of services to the community" sector. With a significant monetary allocation of £930,000 for a contract duration of 1080 days, it also calls for 'Cyber Essentials Plus' certification.
