## Summary

The Hull City Council has recently concluded the public procurement process for the "Poverty Truth Commission," a project aimed at addressing poverty in the UK through collaborative discussions between individuals with lived experiences of poverty and decision-makers. The procurement process, classified under health and social work services, commenced with an open tender procedure and included a budget of £75,000. The tender was published on 19 August 2021, with the submission deadline set for 20 September 2021. The awarded contract began on 4 October 2021 and will run until 3 October 2023, situated in Hull, within the Yorkshire and the Humber region.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, especially those specialising in social services, community development, or health-related initiatives. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) would be particularly well-suited to apply, as the project requires a deep understanding of poverty-related challenges and innovative solutions. By engaging in this collaborative project with Hull City Council, businesses can contribute to social impact while potentially expanding their networks and client bases within the public sector.
