It brings together over 400 organisations from the public, private, and voluntary sectors, all of which are either based in or provide services within South Tyneside. The Pledge is coordinated by the Policy and Insight team, with strong cross-Council collaboration involving Strategic Investment & Growth, Communications, Procurement, Sustainability, and other departments. It represents a collective commitment to inclusive growth, local investment, and community resilience. ### Purpose of the Evaluation This evaluation aims to assess the impact of the South Tyneside Pledge over the past three years, focusing on how effectively it has delivered against its nine core commitments. The findings will inform future strategy, identify areas for improvement, and celebrate successes across the partnership. ## CPV classification Evaluation consultancy services Source Find a Tender (UK) · Notice ocds-h6vhtk-05f4db-2026-02-13T11:42:59Z [View official notice](https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/ocds-h6vhtk-05f4db-2026-02-13T11:42:59Z) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
