This procurement falls under the marketing services category and is centred in the North West region of the United Kingdom. The tender is currently in the planning stage, with submissions due by 1st September 2017 at 12 noon. The contract is anticipated to commence on 30th September 2017 and run until 21st December 2018, with a total estimated value of £100,000, and a minimum contract value of £50,000.

This tender presents significant business opportunities, particularly for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs), looking to engage in educational initiatives aimed at increasing higher education applications among underrepresented demographics. Providers of marketing services who specialise in outreach programmes, community engagement, or educational support would be well-suited to compete for this contract, as the University aims to enhance access to higher education for students aged 14-18 from targeted areas with historically low progression rates. ## Notice Shaping Futures is a partnership of 12 Higher and Further Education providers located within the Liverpool City Region (LCR).
