Summary of the contracting process

The Police & Crime Commissioner for Merseyside and the Chief Constable for Merseyside commissioned a targeted fund grant for charities, community groups and social enterprises. The work supports initiatives that prevent crime and anti-social behaviour and help keep communities safe. It is a community, social and personal services requirement, covering activity delivered across England. The procurement is associated with Merseyside policing and has a particular focus on organisations able to deliver community safety outcomes through targeted local or regional activity. This is a grant-funded service rather than a conventional supply or construction contract, so it is most relevant to voluntary, community and social enterprise organisations with an established role in prevention and community support.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded directly without competition as a below-threshold opportunity. Young Persons Advisory Service was selected as the supplier. The award is active and the contract was signed on 1 April 2026. It runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027. The contract value is £30,000 gross, and the procurement is below the applicable threshold. There was one completed lot. The published outcome identifies the grant, supplier, value and contract period, but does not set out a scored evaluation basis. The arrangement therefore represents a completed, single-supplier award made through a direct grant route rather than a competitive tender.

This opportunity indicates demand from Merseyside policing for voluntary and community organisations delivering targeted crime-prevention and anti-social-behaviour interventions. A credible future provider would need to demonstrate a clear community safety purpose, experience supporting young people or communities, and the ability to deliver practical prevention activity with measurable public-safety benefits. Charities, community groups and social enterprises are the relevant supplier profile, particularly organisations with local knowledge, trusted community relationships and suitable safeguarding and delivery arrangements. The selected supplier is a large voluntary, community or social enterprise organisation, showing that the buyer values an established social-purpose provider capable of managing a funded service and reporting on outcomes across the communities it serves.
