Summary of the contracting process

The Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime in London is in the planning stage of the procurement process for a project titled "VRU Hospital Based Youth Work." This initiative falls under the health and social work services category and aims to embed youth workers in major trauma centres (MTCs) and accident & emergency departments (A&Es) throughout London. The procurement process is managed under the light-touch regime, and its value is estimated to be £12,800,000. The planned contract period is from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2029, with a potential extension until 31st March 2031. Key dates include the future notice release on 1st October 2025, allowing interested parties to prepare for subsequent stages of the tender.

This tender opportunity presents significant growth potential for businesses involved in providing health and social work services, particularly those with experience in youth work within healthcare settings. The project seeks suitability involvement from SMEs and VCSEs, allowing smaller businesses and voluntary organisations to become key players in delivering vital services. Companies with expertise in implementing social programmes, particularly in healthcare environments, will find a competitive edge. By participating, businesses can expand their service portfolio and form valuable partnerships with public authorities. Furthermore, the planned renewal options offer long-term engagement prospects for successful bidders.
