Summary of the contracting process

West Mercia Police and Crime Commissioner is seeking projects that help children and young people develop the skills, awareness and resilience to build healthy relationships and stay safe from harm. The grant round supports innovative, practical work aligned with the Safer Communities Plan priorities. The service scope spans education and training, guidance and counselling, community action and community health. Delivery is in the West Midlands. This is a single grant opportunity for organisations working with children and young people, rather than a purchase of goods or construction work.

The buyer invited offers through an open competition for a below-threshold service grant. The process reached tender, with submissions and enquiries due by 2 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The contract period runs from 1 January to 31 December 2027. The grant is up to £150,000, with a gross value of £180,000. There is one lot. Participation is reserved for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises located in the West Midlands. The selection criteria state none. Offers are evaluated using the methodology set out in section 7 of the ITQ document.

This opportunity is suited to West Midlands-based SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises with the ability to deliver work for children and young people. Relevant capabilities may include education and training, relationship guidance or counselling, community programmes and community health services. The fund is intended to support innovative, impactful projects that build young people’s skills, awareness and resilience and help them stay safe from harm, in line with the Safer Communities Plan. The single-lot structure offers a route to propose a project across this broad service remit. No specific professional accreditation, minimum capacity or prior experience requirement is set out in the stated selection criteria.
