Description
The Mayor of London's Violence Reduction Unit (VRU) is committed to an approach in tackling violence that is rooted in prevention and early intervention. Our key focus in stopping violence from happening is through investing and providing better access to positive opportunities for young people, families and communities. That's why we're launching the third iteration of the Stronger Futures programme, the VRU's flagship after-school and holiday activities programme. More than 19,000 young people benefited from support, guidance and access to opportunities after school, at weekend and during the school holidays within Stronger Futures 2.0 that ran between 2023-25. We have built on the successes of previous iterations and listened carefully to feedback from you and from young Londoners. This has shaped our understanding of what more is needed to support grassroots organisations and larger VCS organisations to deliver effectively and to work in partnership for the benefit of young people and the diverse communities affected by violence. Purpose of the Market Engagement The VRU invites partners to a Market Engagement Session to discuss requirements for future commissioning of the Stronger Futures 3.0 Programme. This programme will strengthen the VRUs after school and holiday offer to young Londoners in reducing violence across London, providing positive opportunities and wraparound support during the core hours of 3pm-10pm after school, and during school holiday periods. The focus will be on: Delivery of the programme requirements Supporting community organisations to build capacity and become more sustainable Details on type of after school and holiday activities the VRU are seeking Next steps on applications process Following this Market Engagement Session we will be sending out details of the Grant Management company who will lead and support the application process for Stronger Futures 3.0, with support and guidance to ensure organisations are eligible for the funding opportunity, while also allowing ease of application process within a short time frame of submission deadline.
