The programme uses theatre and creative arts workshops to bring participants together, encourage dialogue and collaboration, and build understanding across different backgrounds and identities. Activities address identity, culture, belonging, respect, inclusion and positive relationships, while developing communication, teamwork, leadership and performance skills. Delivery is organised in three groups of 30 participants. This is a youth education and community arts service, rather than a one-off performance or supply of equipment. The initiative’s purpose is peace-building through shared creative experiences for young people in the cross-border community. The buyer invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The procurement is presented as one lot. The gross estimated value is £105,120. The contract period runs from 1 December 2026 to 30 April 2028. The deadline for questions is 18 November 2026 at 12:00, and the offer submission deadline is 23 November 2026 at 12:00. Electronic submission is allowed through the stated e-tendering portal. The evaluation basis is set out in the tender document. The programme is planned for three tranches of 30 participants, with delivery described as taking place between 1 December 2026 and 31 March 2028; the lot’s stated contract period ends later, on 30 April 2028. This requirement is suited to providers with experience designing and delivering structured drama or theatre programmes for young people, particularly those able to work with participants aged 16–21 from different communities across a border region. Strong candidates will be able to facilitate inclusive, safe group work and use creative practice to support dialogue around identity, culture, belonging, respect and positive relationships. The delivery model calls for the capacity to work with 90 participants across three groups, combining workshop facilitation with purposeful development of communication, teamwork, leadership and performance skills. Relevant strengths include youth engagement, community arts, peace-building and cross-community programme delivery. The work is likely to suit an organisation able to coordinate a sustained programme and bring together young people for shared creative activity. ## Notice The Youth Drama Programme is a cross-border, cross-community peace-building initiative for 90 young people aged 16-21 years, delivered in three tranches of 30 participants between 1 December 2026 and 31 March 2028. The programme is designed to bring together young people from communities across the border region to develop meaningful relationships, increase understanding of different backgrounds and identities, and build confidence through shared creative experiences. Participants will take part in a structured programme of drama-based workshops that use theatre and the creative arts as a medium for dialogue, collaboration and personal development. Through facilitated activities, participants will explore themes including identity, culture, belonging, respect, inclusion and positive relationships while developing communication, teamwork, leadership and performance skills. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/103676-2026 | | Notice type | UK4 - Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Below threshold - open competition | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 2 Nov 2026 | | Submission deadline | 23 Nov 2026 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Dec 2026 - 30 Apr 2028 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £105,120 | | Lots value | £105,120 | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | Fermanagh and Omagh District Council | | Locality | ENNISKILLEN | | Postcode area | Northern Ireland | | Postcode | BT74 7BA | | Country | Northern Ireland | | ITL 1 | TLN Northern Ireland | | ITL 2 | TLN0 Northern Ireland | | ITL 3 | TLN0G Fermanagh and Omagh | | Local authority | Fermanagh and Omagh | | Electoral ward | Portora | | Westminster constituency | Fermanagh and South Tyrone | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services - 85 - Health and social work services - 92 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services - 98 - Other community, social and personal services ### Codes - 80310000 - Youth education services - 85322000 - Community action programme - 92000000 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services - 98000000 - Other community, social and personal services ## Release History - 2 Nov 2026 at 12:08 - Tender - UK4 - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/103676-2026 ## Documents - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/103676-2026 2nd November 2026 - Tender notice on Find a Tender ## Notice URLs - https://etendersni.gov.uk/epps - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/contents ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
