My Ends is the second iteration of our ambitious, flagship programme which will run from April 2024 until March 2026. It promotes highly local, place-based approaches to reducing violence. The programme will be targeted in six to eight neighbourhoods across London which have experienced high and sustained levels of violence. It is non-prescriptive and empowers voluntary and community sector (VCS) providers to come together to build a Network tasked with developing locally tailored approaches that meet the needs of the community. The VRU is currently in the process of identifying these areas and commissioning the VCS led Networks to commence delivery in April 2024. To support the programme, the VRU is seeking to commission external Provider(s) to provide a series of support & evaluation packages. These packages are divided into three lots which reflect the variety of skillsets and experience the VRU wishes to see: - Lot 1 Community Needs Assessment, - Lot 2 Process & Learning Evaluation, - Lot 3 Impact Evaluation Analysis, Further information about the Lots can be found in the attached document. We will be holding an online Information Session for prospective bidders on 23rd October from 13:00 - 15:00 where we will share further information about this opportunity and invite feedback on the proposed specification. Please reply to email: by midday on 19th October 2023 to sign up to the Information Session.
