About The VRU The London Violence Reduction Unit (VRU), hosted within the Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC), pioneers a partnership-based public health approach to tackling violence rooted in prevention and early intervention. Since 2019, the VRU has invested in over 550,000 targeted interventions for young people across London. The VRU invests in interventions at critical moments to keep young people safe in and out of school and at the key touchpoints that influence a young person’s journey; early years and families, education, positive opportunities, youth work, and communities and place. In London, working in partnership, we bring together services at a local level to better coordinate delivery of prevention. We build and support effective partnerships with government, local authorities, the NHS, education services, and the police. Our strength is in connection to London’s diverse communities and young people. We’ve made embedding the voice of young people, practitioner and communities a critical part of our approach and decision-making. You can read the VRU's strategy on our website and view the VRU’s outcomes framework, which measures our impact.

The programme will help community organisations reach more young people aged 14–24 years old and strengthen the quality and sustainability of their provision. It will do this by delivering an increased universal, open-access provision, and targeted specialised support for young people facing greater challenges. For more information on this specific Youth Clubs programme, please see The Mayor's investment in youth clubs | London City Hall. Safety is a core outcome of this Mayoral investment in youth clubs. Whilst it will provide universal youth provision alongside targeted support, some young people will require specialist interventions beyond the expertise and capacity of local delivery partners. Therefore, the Mayor has agreed additional investment to provide a London-wide Safety Offer to sit alongside th... > [Read full procurement scope and specification on Tenderline](https://tenderline.uk/tenders/london-violence-reduction-unit-vru-mayoral-youth-clubs-safety-programme-ocds-h6vhtk-06f580) ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** active - **CPV codes:** 85000000, 98133110 - **Delivery regions:** UKI - **Delivery countries in notice:** GB - **Estimated Value:** £5,160,000 - **Contract Period:** 04/01/2027 to 31/03/2029 - **Renewal published:** yes ## Provenance and Official Sources - **Official Notice:** [Find a Tender notice](/out?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.find-tender.service.gov.uk%2FNotice%2F098582-2026) - **Last Source Update:** 2026-10-20T09:18:56.000Z - **This document generated:** 2026-10-23T19:27:55.816Z - **Machine API:** https://tenderline.uk/api/public/tenders/ocds-h6vhtk-06f580
