This procurement falls under the services category and is classified as an open procedure. The tender period is open until 1st March 2019, with the contract expected to commence on 1st April 2019 and continue until 31st March 2020. The location for delivery relates to Walsall, West Midlands, and the ideal providers should have a strong connection to, and understanding of, the local GTR communities. This tender presents a significant growth opportunity for organisations experienced in community engagement, particularly those working within social services or directly with minority communities. Businesses that focus on cultural insights, training resource development, and community empowerment will be particularly suited to compete for this contract. By fostering participation from GTR communities, successful bidders will not only contribute positively to local relations but also enhance their own profiles and capabilities within the community development sector. ## Notice We are looking to commission an organisation (community, voluntary or private) with a good track record of engaging with Gypsy, Traveller and Roma (GTR) communities on local issues. The aim of the project is to develop good representation from each GTR community into the Walsall for All Programme funded by MHCLG and increase awareness of their issues and challenges amongst public, private and community and voluntary sector with the aim to overcome these challenges in future. The provider will involve GTR communities in development of empowerment programmes to support themselves in future on a range of issues from health, education and hate crime. Preferred providers will be those that have direct links with local Gypsy, Traveller and Roma communities, possessing good cultural insight gained from personal experience. One of the outputs is to develop training resources and toolkits with Gypsies, Travellers and Roma themselves and organise a local conference/s. As part of the legacy of this project it is expected that GTR communities will have a greater positive impact on decision-making and community relations in Walsall.
