Summary of the contracting process

The Police & Crime Commissioner for Merseyside and Chief Constable for Merseyside commissioned the She Inspires 2026 Event, a health and social work service delivered by Everton in the Community. The initiative supports the Community First strategy by improving trust and confidence in policing, legitimacy, diversity and engagement with communities. Its focus includes people who may be vulnerable to joining gangs, committing crime, exploitation through county lines, and physical, sexual or domestic abuse. It also supports the violence against women and girls agenda and promotes education about healthy relationships. Delivery covers England, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East and West Midlands, East of England, London, the South East and the South West. The buyer is based in Liverpool.

This procurement has been completed and a supplier has been selected through a direct award below the threshold, without competition. One lot was awarded to Everton in the Community. The award value is £39,000 gross, and the contract period runs from 21 September 2026 to 31 March 2027. The procurement is classified as services, specifically health and social work services. The award relates to the She Inspires programme and its community engagement, safeguarding and prevention objectives. The recorded process status is complete, while the award is recorded as pending. The arrangement is therefore an outcome rather than an opportunity to submit a bid, with the selected supplier expected to deliver the service across England during the stated contract period.

For a supplier considering future work of this kind, the requirement shows demand for a community-based programme combining youth engagement, crime prevention, safeguarding and education. Relevant capability would include trusted access to communities, experience supporting people exposed to gangs, county-lines exploitation and abuse, and the ability to address violence against women and girls and healthy relationships. A credible provider would need to work constructively with policing and community partners, build trust with participants, and deliver activity across a wide English geography. Experience demonstrating legitimacy, diversity, engagement and positive outcomes would strengthen a future proposal. The selected provider is a voluntary, community and social enterprise and an SME, indicating that this type of public service can be delivered by a specialist mission-led organisation rather than only by a large national contractor.
