## Summary

Leeds City Council has concluded a public procurement process titled "Bi-lingual Immigration Support Service", classified under the CPV code 79530000 for translation services. The service is aimed at providing specialist bilingual immigration support in English and Cantonese/Traditional Chinese to migrants from Hong Kong settling in Yorkshire and the Humber via the BN(O) visa route. The procurement was conducted through a direct award method and the contract, valued at £14,366.62, was awarded to Kirklees Citizens Advice and Law Centre, a large-scale supplier. The contract period began on 1st August 2025 and will end on 31st March 2026.

This contract presents growth opportunities particularly for businesses experienced in providing translation services and immigration support, especially those with a capacity to deliver bilingual services in English and Cantonese. While the formal award has already taken place, businesses in the translation and migrant support sector can consider engaging with such tenders in future procurement rounds to expand their market reach and service offerings. Collaboration with local councils like Leeds City Council could unlock further avenues for servicing migrant communities, enhancing community ties, and contributing to social integration efforts in the UK.
