## Summary

The procurement process spearheaded by the Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime in London, titled "Hospital Based Youth Work Programme," focuses on providing in-hospital youth work services across several London hospitals' Accident and Emergency Departments. This initiative falls under the Health and Social Work Services industry category (CPV 85000000) and encompasses services within Croydon University Hospital A&E, Lewisham University Hospital A&E, Queen Elizabeth Hospital A&E, Newham University Hospital A&E, and The Whittington Hospital A&E. Initially spanning from 1st July 2023 to 31st March 2025, the contracts for the programme have been granted extensions until 31st March 2026 following internal approval. This tender process follows the Light Touch Regime (LTR) as implemented in the UK by the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, with a non-mandatory Open Procedure being used. The procurement stage for this project has reached completion, and awards have been activated as of 31st March 2025.

This tender presents substantial prospects for service providers specialising in health and social work, particularly those focused on youth-oriented services in emergency settings. With a collective contract value exceeding £4.4 million, businesses that can deliver comprehensive support and rehabilitation services for youth affected by violence or at risk of exploitation stand to benefit greatly. Companies adept at engaging with young persons sustaining violence-related injuries, providing interim hospital interventions, and subsequently guiding them into long-term community or statutory support services may find significant growth opportunities. Additionally, large-scale organisations experienced in executing projects within public health frameworks would be well-suited to compete and fulfil the contract requirements effectively.
