In plain English

York Council is looking for a provider to design and deliver training that helps staff recognise gambling-related harm, respond to it, and refer people to support. The training is aimed at public sector and voluntary sector staff who are likely to meet people affected by gambling harm but have not had this training before. The contract is worth up to £28,500 over 36 months, with an initial 12-month period at £9,500 and two optional 12-month extensions at £9,500 each.

What the buyer wants

• Design training to raise awareness of gambling-related harms, suitable for a range of public sector and voluntary sector staff groups with no previous training in this area • Deliver training that enables staff to identify people experiencing gambling harm, respond appropriately, and signpost them to support • Demonstrate a good understanding of the onward support services available to staff working in York

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: The notice does not list specific qualifications, insurance or accreditations, but a small business would need to show it can design and deliver training on gambling harm and has a clear understanding of York's local support services, which may be difficult without existing experience in this area.

Always check the tender documents.
