The programme has three connected components: 1. Level 3 Award in Violence Prevention and Reduction (VPR) for Operational Leads 2. Train the Trainer Programme 3. Delivery of the Level 2 Violence Prevention Youth Health Champions qualification Together, these elements develop practitioner expertise, build local capacity and empower young people to act as advocates for violence prevention. The intervention follows a structured, nationally recognised curriculum delivered through the Royal Society for Public Health (RSPH) accredited qualifications. The qualification equips participants with the knowledge and confidence to identify risk factors, implement preventative approaches and support teams in responding effectively to incidents of violence. Following completion of the Level 3 training, practitioners participate in a one-day Train the Trainer programme. This equips them to deliver the Level 2 Youth Health Champions qualification within their organisations and communities. The session focuses on: * Effective facilitation techniques * Safeguarding and trauma-informed delivery * Managing group dynamics and inclusive learning * Assessment and quality assurance processes * Adapting training for different youth settings This approach builds sustainable local capacity and ensures the programme can be delivered across multiple organisations. Level 2 Violence Prevention Youth Health Champions Qualification: Trained practitioners then deliver the Level 2 Youth Health Champions programme to young people aged 16-25, supported by We Do Wellbeing as the registered Qualification centre, with the RSPH The course consists of 12 guided learning hours (20 hours total qualification time) delivered through interactive sessions covering: * Understanding the causes and drivers of violence * Risk and protective factors affecting young people * Public health approaches to violence prevention * Identifying community resources and support services * Developing and delivering peer-led health messages Participants complete the course by designing and presenting a violence prevention awareness campaign aimed at their peers. While the programme follows a defined curriculum aligned with RSPH learning outcomes, delivery is designed to be flexible and responsive to participant needs. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a59fe7b1-de82-4cc2-ae2c-97ff7b3affa2 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Direct | | Procurement method details | Single tender action (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 8 Jul 2026 | | Submission deadline | 31 Mar 2026 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 Mar 2026 - 31 Mar 2027 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £24,500 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | THE OFFICE OF THE POLICE & CRIME COMMISSIONER | | Locality | COTTINGHAM | | Post town | Hull | | Postcode | HU16 5SN | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE1 East Yorkshire and Northern Lincolnshire | | ITL 3 | TLE12 East Riding of Yorkshire | | Local authority | East Riding of Yorkshire | | Electoral ward | Cottingham North | | Westminster constituency | Kingston upon Hull North and Cottingham | | Delivery location | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 80561000 - Health training services ## Release History - 8 Jul 2026 at 12:05 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a59fe7b1-de82-4cc2-ae2c-97ff7b3affa2 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a59fe7b1-de82-4cc2-ae2c-97ff7b3affa2 8th July 2026 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.humbervpp.org ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
