## Summary

The Greater Manchester Combined Authority is seeking bids for a tender titled "Hospital Intervention 'Navigator' Service - Violence Reduction." This initiative, classified under health services, aims to provide support to individuals involved in violent crime through a 12-month 'proof of concept' pilot. The procurement method is open, with submissions due by 18 November 2020. The contract is expected to commence on 1 February 2021 and conclude by 25 February 2022. The service will benefit the North West region of England, with a total value of £180,000 funded by a Home Office grant.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses specialising in health and social work services, particularly those experienced in community support initiatives targeting young people at risk of violence. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are encouraged to participate, as the requirements focus on delivering tailored support to vulnerable individuals within the A&E environment and connecting them with local resources for long-term assistance.

## Notice

The Violence Reduction Unit recognises that for both offenders and victims, there is a gap in referral and provision of services for those caught up in violent crime. Many subject to formal / statutory provision will not engage, whilst many from disadvantaged backgrounds or with complex needs will be unaware of or be unable to access support. GMCA seeks to commission a service provider to support its Violence Reduction Unit on a 12 month basis to test a new Navigator Provision A Greater Manchester approach will consider young people in the context of those vulnerable to criminality, those engaging in criminality and those victimised. These three will often apply to one young person in a short space of time, so it makes sense that any provision is able to support the young person at any stage. The Violence Reduction Unit proposes a 12 month 'proof of concept' pilot to test out the effectiveness of a 'Navigator' service, engaging young people age 10 - 24 inclusive. The Navigators will work within the A and E environment, but also link with existing services in the local community, to ensure young victims receive longer term support. Funding for this project is entirely sourced from the Violence Reduction Unit Home Office grant (2020 / 2021), and as such, no commitment can be given to an extension beyond the initial 12 month contract at this stage.
