## Summary

The Ministry of Justice procured education and training services for prisoners at HMP Holme House in the North East of England. The work covers peer mentoring courses for prisoners who are already working in peer mentor roles across the establishment. The supplier is required to work with prison staff to identify these prisoners, develop a plan to upskill them and provide formal accreditation. The accreditation must be at least Level 1 in Peer Mentoring. This is a focused prison education requirement rather than a general training contract, so relevant providers are likely to be organisations able to deliver structured mentoring training in a custodial setting and work collaboratively with prison staff.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Kinetic Youth Ltd on 3 September 2026. The awarded value is £29,777.87. The contract runs from 3 September 2026 to 2 September 2027. It was a selective call-off from the Prison Education Dynamic Purchasing System, rather than a standalone open tender. The tender submission deadline was 28 July 2026 at 15:00. The requirement was classified as services, specifically education and training services, and was identified as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The award is active and covers the peer mentoring courses at HMP Holme House.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for prison-based peer mentoring education, including the formal accreditation of prisoners already undertaking peer mentor roles. A credible future provider would need to design and deliver Level 1 or higher peer mentoring training, assess learners and provide recognised accreditation. It would also need to work effectively with prison staff to identify suitable participants and shape delivery around the establishment’s existing peer mentor roles. The opportunity is suited to smaller organisations and voluntary, community or social enterprises, so providers with focused education, mentoring, employability or offender-learning capabilities may be well placed. Experience operating in secure or highly regulated environments would support credibility, alongside the capacity to deliver a complete training and accreditation programme for one prison establishment.
