## Summary

The Home Office is conducting a tender for the "Community Engagement Pilot 2 Project," aimed at developing support services for migrants without UK residency. This project falls under the social work and related services category (CPV code: 85300000) and has a total value of £650,000. The tender is currently in the active planning stage, with bids due by 11th November 2019. The contract is scheduled to commence on 2nd December 2019 and will continue for two years, supporting up to 50 migrants at any one time, excluding Foreign National Offenders. The procurement method is an open procedure above the threshold.

This tender presents an exceptional opportunity for not-for-profit organisations, particularly those experienced in assisting communities in large urban areas. Businesses that focus on providing reliable information, community support, and active engagement with migrants would find this tender especially suitable. Through collaborative partnerships, organisations can enhance their service offerings by covering different requirements outlined in the project, which is structured around critical pillars of support for personal decision-making and integration.

## Notice

The Authority is seeking to work with partners to develop services to support migrants who currently live in the community and who do not have permission to live in the UK. Such services shall include assistance to resolve their immigration case comprising legal advice and pastoral support to assist with their integration in the UK or with leaving the UK. These service models will be tested through a series of pilots, each running for two years. The service is framed around the testing of a hypothesis of five pillars of appropriate personal decision making, which are listed as follows: * Personal Stability - fundamental position of stability from which to make difficult, life-changing decisions (housing, living costs, safety, healthcare). * Reliable Information - accurate, comprehensive, personally relevant information on UK immigration and immigration case including legal advice. * Community Support - consistent pastoral support (case manager), and community support, to enable individuals to feel connected, listened to and to converse with other people in their community. * Active Engagement - with immigration services ensuring that people feel connected and engaged. * Prepared Futures - planning for the future, finding positive ways forward for individuals e.g. skills development in line with original immigration objective. There will be an assumption that users of the pilot have sufficient personal stability to make appropriate personal decisions about their future. Their accommodation and living costs needs (personal stability pillar) will already be met by, for instance, a support network of family or friends in the UK. This pilot will therefore focus on a service developing support to meet individual's needs represented by the other four pillars as listed above. The pilot will last for two years, supporting up to 50 migrants at any one time. Foreign National Offenders (FNOs) will NOT be eligible for inclusion in this pilot. Bids are welcome from not-for-profit organisations and other organisations that are able to demonstrate sufficient experience in providing support: * in large urban areas; and * Aa described by the pillars - reliable information, community support, active engagement and prepared future needs. Joint bids are welcome, where organisations can partner up to cover different requirements within the service.
