## Summary

The Department for Education in England has issued a tender titled "Peer support for mental health and wellbeing pilots - Evaluation." This procurement falls under the category of research and development services, specifically aimed at evaluating peer support programmes for children and young people in schools, colleges, and youth organisations. The procurement is in the 'Award' stage, with the contract period having commenced on 10th October 2017 and set to conclude on 31st December 2019. The opportunity was open for expressions of interest until 11th April 2017, with a contract value of £128,700 awarded to Ecorys UK.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) interested in mental health and educational services. Businesses that provide evaluation, consultancy, or development services related to mental health initiatives, particularly within the educational sector, would be well-positioned to compete. Engaging in such projects not only allows these companies to contribute positively to community wellbeing but also promotes growth through established relationships with government bodies and educational organisations.
