## Notice

The MoJ is looking for a suitable supplier to deliver a bespoke trauma-informed training package to multi-agency court staff at three Crown Court centres: Snaresbrook (London), Leeds and Newcastle. This is part of a wider Specialist Sexual Violence Support (SSVS) project to support Rape and Serious Sexual Violence (RASSO) victims in their journey through court. All training days should be delivered before the end of 2023. The Supplier The MoJ is seeking expressions of interests (EOIs) from providers who can demonstrate: - Experience and expertise in designing, developing and delivering professional trauma-informed courses which meet different learning styles and needs and fulfil a multi-agency approach. - Have experience and understanding in designing and delivering training services for a range of stakeholders. - An understanding of the court experience from the perspective of a RASSO victim or have evidence working in this space and supporting vulnerable people. The Training Package: - A bespoke trauma-informed training day for multi-agency groups of victim-facing staff working within the three SSVS courts (including clerks, ushers, Crown Prosecution Service, police, security). - Based on numbers from the three pilot courts in 2022, we are looking at ~450 people going through the training. Please note at this point this is a rough estimate. - Training should be delivered face-to-face, workshop style in an interactive and engaging manner, using real life examples aiming to increase understanding and change behaviour of court staff towards RASSO victims. - The training will develop staff understanding of; o Trauma and the multiple experiences of it, challenging misconceptions about these o The court experience o The need for trust/empowerment of victims o Trauma responses and dispelling rape myths relating to these o Vicarious/secondary trauma and compassion fatigue - The course will need to cover a wide range of staffing groups and will therefore need to be developed to have bespoke elements for this learning audience (court staff). - A monitorable system with effective feedback and evaluation processes in place (e.g. pre and post training questionnaires and a follow-up focus group). Please note that this is NOT a tendering exercise, it is an initial market engagement exercise to gauge market interest and understand the scope of this requirement.
