The desired outcome of the service is to increase the resilience of communities to flooding and coastal change through engagement to inform, educate, and drive behaviour change. The initiative is funded primarily by the North West Regional Flood and Coastal Committee and the RFCC are therefore a key customer. The supplier will be required to work with and support North West flood risk management authorities as required: local authorities (of which there are 24 Lead Local Flood Authorities and 12 district councils); the Environment Agency; and United Utilities, as the primary water company. The communities to be supported include: • Residents including homeowners and tenants • Businesses, including agricultural businesses and farmers. Communities vary considerably in terms of their characteristics (size, demographics, situation e.g. urban, rural) and needs. Many are in areas of deprivation which are generally harder to reach and require different approaches to engagement to meet their needs. The scope of the engagement needed is primarily in relation to flooding, flood risk and resilience and any measures or matters related to this. A smaller but important element of the scope includes broader coastal change and erosion which may require communities to adapt over time. Some support to coastal authorities is likely to be required, to support planning and implementation of community engagement, as well as developing online content relating to the coast. The service provider will maintain a neutral, constructive, and professional working relationship with all flood risk management authorities (RMAs). Following flooding incidents, residents and businesses may be highly emotional and urgently seeking explanations, often directing blame towards local councils, water companies, or the Environment Agency. Communities commonly expect authorities to "fix" the issue so that flooding does not recur. These circumstances can make engagement challenging, and careful handling is required. The supplier will: • act in a neutral, balanced, and mutually supportive capacity; • help communities to understand the roles and responsibilities of the RMAs; • support and complement multi partner engagement activities; • assist communities in accessing information, without attributing blame or making demands for action on their behalf. The supplier will navigate the political context of flood risk and resilience with sensitivity and professionalism, maintaining neutrality at all times. They will work constructively with a wide range of stakeholders, including RMA officers, local councillors, Members of Parliament, the Regional Flood and Coastal Comm... > [Read full procurement scope and specification on Tenderline](https://tenderline.uk/tenders/gmca-1134-north-west-community-flood-resilience-engagement-support-services-ocds-h6vhtk-066b98) ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** complete - **CPV codes:** 72413000, 75120000, 85322000, 98000000 - **Delivery regions:** UKD - **Delivery countries in notice:** GB - **Estimated Value:** £2,200,000 - **Contract Period:** 31/07/2026 to 31/07/2029 - **Renewal published:** yes ## Awards & Winning Suppliers (1) - **Award:** 1 (active) - Supplier(s): **NEWGROUND CIC** - Supplier identifiers: `GB-COH:02584952` - Value: £2,100,000 (exc.
