Published requirement description

Warwickshire County Council (the Council) has commissioned a single provider to deliver a range of free, confidential, independent advice and support services covering each of the protected characteristics as set out in the Equality Act 2010.

The service will deliver fully accessible advice and support around victimisation, discrimination, harassment and hate cases, and refer to specialist support organisations where appropriate.

The service will develop and deliver a range of equalities related training to community groups, faith groups, businesses, schools and public sector organisations.

The service will seek to improve community cohesion across Warwickshire via a range of engagement channels with community organisations and public sector organisations, ensuring different groups sitting under each of the protected

characteristics feel their voices are heard and they have influence in local decision making.

The service will be divided into the following three lots:

  • Lot 1 Discrimination and Hate Crime Support
  • Lot 2 Provision of Equalities Training and Guidance
  • Lot 3 Engagement and Community Cohesion

Where more than one supplier is successful in securing contracts for the delivery of the above lots, suppliers will work in partnership to deliver the service outcomes.
