## Summary

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Leicestershire has awarded a contract for the Specialist Provider Education, Training & Employment project. This initiative, part of the Violence Intervention Project (VIP) and the Phoenix Programme, aims to support young individuals involved in violent incidents through robust intervention and educational support. The procurement process, categorized under social work services (CPV code 85310000), encompasses various regions across the United Kingdom, with the programme running from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026. The tender, initiated under a 'below threshold - unknown' procurement method, has reached the award stage with a contract value of £72,500.40. Key contacts can be reached at the respective email addresses provided by both the buyer and the supplier.

This contract presents substantial opportunities for businesses involved in educational and social work services, particularly those capable of delivering targeted support to young people with violent backgrounds. Companies with expertise in providing integrated educational, training, and employment services are well-suited to compete for similar tenders. The project requires a dedicated approach with a focus on individual needs assessment and tailored support, making it an ideal opportunity for organisations with experience in handling complex, youth-focused intervention programmes. Moreover, engaging in such projects can significantly enhance business profiles and expand their service portfolios in the public sector.

## Notice

Violence Intervention Project (VIP) who target young people between the ages of 11 and 25 who have been arrested for a serious violent incident and are in Police custody, or who have attended the emergency department for treatment following a violence related injury. The Phoenix Programme targets people who have been selected through a strict criterion of being involved with violence with a clear group dynamic. This cohort are subject to a focused deterrence approach, with robust support and opportunities offered, one of which is the ETE provision. The target for referrals is 75 per year (1/4/25- 31/3/26) combined from both interventions. During the 2025/2026 year, there may be an additional route for referrals and there is an expectation that Leicestershire Cares could pivot to take these extra cases, but not to increase above capacity of 75. The service that Leicestershire Cares offers to any of these people referred through a VRN intervention is an assessment of needs followed by a plan which details the targeted support required around ETE to meet their personal goals. A dedicated case worker is allocated and will support the person to achieve their goals. There are also opportunities for ongoing employments through local organisations that work with Leicestershire Cares.
