In plain English

Leicestershire County Council is looking for trusted local organisations based in one of four priority neighbourhoods in Leicester to deploy an Active Neighbourhood Champion. The champion will help residents, groups and services connect, shape ideas together and create more ways for people to be active in their community, as part of the Sport England Place Partnership programme.

What the buyer wants

• Be a trusted local organisation based within one of the priority neighbourhoods named in the lot (for example Mowmacre and Stocking Farm, Thurnby Lodge, Saffron and Eyres Monsell, or North Evington, Rowlatts Hill, Northfields and Merrydale) • Deploy an Active Neighbourhood Champion who is naturally connected, curious and committed to helping local people influence change • Support residents, community groups, services and partners to build on existing community strengths and create more opportunities for people to move in ways that matter to them

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: The notice requires the organisation to be based within the priority neighbourhood and to be trusted locally, so a business without a local base or community roots in that area would most likely be ruled out, and the notice states this is not a traditional sports development role.

Always check the tender documents.
