## Summary

The Royal Borough of Greenwich is seeking to enhance its Universal Youth Support Service through an open tender process identified as SPS 1028. This initiative aims to provide dynamic and engaging activities for young people aged 10 to 21, focusing primarily on the 13 to 19 age group, with special consideration for those with additional needs. The procurement stage has been completed, with the award date being 5th August 2015. The total value of the contracts is approximately £4,187,850, and the services will be delivered in London, with a contract period running from 1st October 2015 to 31st October 2019. Interested parties should note that the tender has now concluded, but the relevant details are significant for future opportunities.

This tender presents valuable opportunities for businesses, particularly within the health and social work services sector, to engage with the delivery of youth support activities. Organisations specialising in educational programs, recreational services, and community support systems would be well-suited to compete in similar future tenders. There is potential for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSE) to play a crucial role in service provision, especially given the focus on vulnerable and hard-to-reach groups within the community.

## Notice

The Universal Youth Support Service in Royal Greenwich will provide a range of well-managed, exciting and challenging positive youth activities for young people aged 10- 21 (up to 25 years for young people with special educational needs and disabilities) with a primary focus on 13 - 19 years. The Universal Youth Support service will include open access, outdoor activities and effectively targeted and suitable provision for vulnerable and hard to reach groups including disabled young people with challenging and complex needs. The Universal Youth Support service enables the Royal Borough of Greenwich to meet its statutory duty to secure and promote young people's access to educational and recreational leisure time activities under Section 507B of the Education Act 1996, introduced through Section 6 of the Education and Inspections Act 2006. The programme will be informed by the views of local young people and include: * Educational leisure time activities eg learning opportunities through residential, weekend or holiday- time activities and volunteering activity which improve young people's personal and social development and delivered using youth work methods and approaches. * Recreational leisure time activities such as sports, informal physical activities, cultural activities including music, performing and visual arts. The requirement is split into 2 lots: Lot 1 is for one contract for year-round universal youth provision covering four geographical areas, through direct delivery and sub-contracting arrangements. This will include a proportion of 'high support' provision for young people with complex or challenging needs and offer a youth work curriculum to meet the needs of young people in the Royal Greenwich young people. Lot 2 is one contract to deliver a Summer Programme of short courses, through direct delivery and subcontracting arrangements for young people in the Royal borough of Greenwich including those requiring 'high support' due to their complex or challenging needs.
