## Summary

Tewkesbury Borough Council is actively seeking to enhance youth participation with the launch of the "Developing and Delivering Youth Voice for Tewkesbury Borough" procurement project. Positioned within sectors such as Research and Development, Business Services, Education, Health and Social Work, and Community Services, this tender invites organisations to propose innovative approaches to youth engagement. Located in Tewkesbury, UK, the project is currently in the tendering stage, with a submission deadline set for 9th February 2026. Organisations must submit comprehensive proposals for both phases of the initiative, with a total contract term extending to March 2028, and potential extensions considered subject to the Authority's approval.

This procurement is a prime opportunity for businesses specialising in youth advocacy, community engagement, and consultancy services. With a substantial budget of up to £150,000, there is a clear emphasis on quality, innovation, and social impact, with the assessment criteria favouring these aspects at 80% of the scoring weight. The open competition procurement method ensures a transparent and competitive bidding process, ideal for organisations eager to demonstrate their expertise in fostering sustainable youth-focused programmes. Businesses with a strong understanding of local governance and a track record in youth initiatives would be particularly well-suited for this opportunity.

## Notice

The Authority is seeking to appoint a suitably qualified and experienced organisation to work alongside established youth participation and youth voice providers in the Borough to develop a new, sustainable council model that empowers young people in Tewkesbury Borough by ensuring their voices are heard, valued, and acted upon in local decision-making. * Phase one - invites organisations to propose and implement innovative, inclusive, and sustainable approaches to youth voice, with one option to be launched and delivery started by September 2026. * Phase two - to embed and continue the delivery of the chosen Youth Voice model for a period of a further 18 months until March 2028. This will include outlining format/forums the young people will be involved in. Suppliers must submit bids for both phases; failure to do so will result in their tender being rejected. The contract period is until March 2028 . Extensions to this period will be considered where clear justification exists, subject to the agreement of the Authority.
