Summary of the contracting process

Leeds City Council is spearheading a public procurement process for the "Unfolding Programme," which is designed to bolster the health and wellbeing of the voluntary sector in Leeds, United Kingdom. The buying organisation, renowned as a sub-central government authority, seeks to address challenges in the voluntary sector by implementing this programme from 1st July 2025 to 30th June 2027, with an option to extend for another year. The procurement, under the category of services related to health and social work, was undertaken using a direct method below the threshold without competition, and it is now at the award and contract stage. The programme has been awarded to Humans Being (Yorkshire) CIC, providing a budget of £97,500 over the project duration.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for entities within the health and wellbeing sectors, particularly those focused on social work services. SMEs and larger organisations with capabilities in addressing complex community needs would find this contract an excellent match for leveraging their expertise and expanding their portfolio in public sector collaborations. The programme highlights the importance of community support, indicating that businesses adept in innovative volunteer-driven initiatives or workforce support systems could achieve growth by contributing to the amelioration of service delivery amidst funding constraints and the high demands of the voluntary sector. Such engagement not only promises monetary benefits but enhances organisational reputation and local impact efficacy.
