    Brief

    This contract seeks a service provider to deliver comprehensive athlete and team engagement services for two major sporting events: the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games (23 July - 2 August 2026) and the European Athletics Championships in Birmingham (10-16 August 2026). The successful supplier will be responsible for: creating social media content through unique athlete and team access across all UK home nations (England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland); providing media training for communications teams, team leaders, CEOs, and chairs to ensure consistent acknowledgement of National Lottery funding in all media interactions; syndicating content to relevant local and national UK media outlets; and developing and executing an end-to-end content production, amplification, and syndication strategy that tells the story of how National Lottery funding has supported teams, athletes, and sports development. The contract combines content creation, media relations, and strategic communications to maximize the visibility and impact of National Lottery investment across both sporting events.
