## Notice

The People's Projects: The National Lottery Community Fund has teamed up with ITV, UTV, and The Sunday Mail in Scotland to give community organisations the chance to apply for up to PS70,000 of National Lottery funding. After a high-profile national campaign, the winners will be decided by public vote, giving National Lottery players and the public a say in how National Lottery money is spent. The People's Projects relies on the public voting for projects to receive National Lottery funding, so to ensure its success, it is essential for the projects taking part that they receive support and advice around the filming of their project, training on maximising votes through campaigning and general media training. The projects may not be familiar with campaigning for votes or giving media interviews and this training will build capacity and skills for this programme and also in helping equip projects with further skills in this area for their future endeavours. We are therefore looking to provide face-to-face media and campaign training for all the shortlist and reserve list projects and provide them all with a campaign booklet they can use as a reference guide after the training. This will be a 7 month contract until 01st May 2023, with the option to extend by a further month. The maximum budget for delivering the Services is PS90,000 including expenses (excluding VAT). This contract will be subject to the Fund's standard terms and conditions. These can be accessed via the following link: https://www.tnlcommunityfund.org.uk/about/customer-service/supplier-zone/terms-and-conditions (this contract will be subject to our terms and conditions for over PS10,000). A submission received as part of this tender process shall constitute acceptance of these terms and conditions, so bidders are advised to review these with their legal team whilst the tender is still live. This tender will be conducted on BravoSolution, the Fund's chosen eTendering portal. In order to access this tender, bidders will first need to register on the portal, via the following link: https://tnlcommunityfund.bravosolution.co.uk/
