Therefore both emotional and practical support is key to helping these victims to cope and recover. From April 2017 the PCC will grant fund an organisation (or more than one in the case of collaborative applications) to support vulnerable victims who have been a victim of crime and/or ASB in Merseyside. Commissioned services will be expected to work in partnership with multiple agencies, adopting a co-operative and collaborative approach to service provision and ensuring information is shared appropriately to best meet the needs of victims. ## CPV classification Civic betterment and community facility support services Source Contracts Finder (UK) [View official notice](https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/5d5748a1-94df-4450-b59d-236f5ee623df) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
