## Description
London Borough of Brent are looking to explore the market to establish a Land-based Education and Skills service from September 2027 at the Welsh Harp Centre. 
This is an opportunity for Providers who have experience of delivering land-based education and skills training and approved qualifications to young people from 16 – 25 years. 
The Council is seeking to engage with and obtain the views of providers of Green Skills/ Land-based education and skills training services. 
Opening September 2027, the Welsh Harp Environmental Education Centre will be a flagship hub for environmental education, land-based vocational training and community inclusion in Brent. Set within a brand-new, purpose-built centre located within the beautiful 170-hectare Welsh Harp nature reserve (the unique features of which have led to it being classified as a Site of Special Scientific Interest), the Centre will provide Brent young people aged 16–25 who face barriers to employment, further learning and independent adulthood with access to nature, green space and practical learning in a calm, purposeful and inspiring environment.

•	Young people involved in the Youth Justice System.
The Council recognises that there may be significant overlap between these cohorts and that learners may have differing abilities, aspirations, interests and support needs. Access to specific pathways or programmes may also be subject to relevant eligibility, programme and funding requirements.
Young people will be supported to develop the skills, routines and confidence needed for work, independence, health and wellbeing, and active participation in their local community. The offer will focus on vocational learning linked to genuine employment opportunities, particularly in horticulture, conservation, land management, environmental education, customer service and site maintenance.
Training will be structured but flexible, combining accredited and non-accredited learning, functional skills, work placements and live work-based activity. Young people will learn through doing: growing, planting and maintaining green spaces, supporting conservation work, contributing to site operations and engaging with visitors and community groups.
The centre will also act as a social and community hub. It will offer opportunities to make friends, build life skills, improve emotional wellbeing and develo...
