## Summary

The New Forest District Council, based in Lyndhurst, United Kingdom, recently completed the procurement process for the "Development of New Forest NEET Support Programme." This initiative addresses community needs by helping disengaged young people aged 16-24 gain skills necessary for entrepreneurship and re-entering education or employment. The procurement, classified under the services category as a community action programme, adopted a limited competitive method, below financial thresholds. The procurement stage concluded with the award decision on 6th August 2025, marking the start of the contract period, which extends until 31st March 2026. The primary supplier, Youth Options, a large VCSE organisation from Eastleigh, will deliver the programme across the UKJ3 region.

This tender provides business growth opportunities by actively involving enterprises in addressing critical societal issues through innovative programming. Companies specialising in youth engagement, community organisation, social entrepreneurship, or educational services are well-positioned to benefit from similar opportunities. The holistic approach of the NEET Support Programme aligns with firms aiming to impact social change while expanding their service portfolio within sub-central government frameworks. Businesses with expertise in delivering skill enhancement and social empowerment projects will find the programme's objectives directly related to their operational goals and offer future potential as similar initiatives arise.

## Notice

Scope Overview: The New Forest NEET Support Programme will target young people from 16 - 24 who are disengaged from education and are uneconomically active. The programmes aim is to provide entrepreneur start-up advice and guidance providing NEET's with elevated social skills, self-worth and confidence alongside the knowledge, skills and self-confidence to start their own enterprise, enter the world of work, or return to education/training. This programme will go beyond traditional skills support such as C.V. writing and interview techniques, instead delivering a holistic support package that addresses the complex needs of the NEET target group.
