In plain English

The South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority wants a supplier to design and run a leadership training programme for leaders and aspiring leaders in the voluntary, community, faith and social enterprise (VCFSE) sector, meaning charities, community groups, faith groups and social enterprises. The programme aims to build leadership skills and give participants practical knowledge for preventing knife crime. The estimated value is £165,000.

What the buyer wants

• Design a leadership development programme for leaders and aspiring leaders from the VCFSE sector • Deliver the programme so it strengthens leadership across organisations working with children, young people and communities • Equip participants with specialist knowledge, skills and practical tools to lead evidence-informed approaches to knife crime prevention

Requirements

What could rule a small business out (our reading of the notice, written with AI): The notice does not list specific qualifications, insurance or turnover thresholds, but it requires you to design and deliver a leadership programme with specialist knowledge of knife crime prevention, so a business without a track record in both leadership training and violence prevention is unlikely to be competitive.
