    Brief

    The London Violence Reduction Unit (VRU) is seeking an Expert Partner to support its strategic approach to youth digital safety and online harms affecting young people aged 11-25 in London. This is a market engagement exercise ahead of a formal procurement opportunity. About the VRU: The VRU, hosted within the Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime, uses a partnership-based public health approach to prevent violence through early intervention. Since 2019, it has delivered over 550,000 targeted interventions across London. Background: Online platforms create both opportunities and risks for young people, including exposure to harmful content, exploitation, harassment, and coercion. There is a significant gap between young people's experiences and the systems designed to support them. The VRU aims to develop a more coordinated, evidence-led, youth-centred regional model for addressing online harms. Scope: The commission is structured in two lots: - Lot 1 (Research, Policy and Strategic Insight): Up to £110,600 fixed budget - providing strategic evidence, research, policy support, knowledge products, and external influence on youth digital safety - Lot 2 (Programme Development, Test-and-Learn and Learning Partner): Up to £205,400 fixed budget - supporting programme design, co-design, implementation learning, and continuous improvement Both lots include optional draw-down provisions (up to £82,000 and £152,000 respectively), with maximum total contract value of £550,000 excl VAT over 30 months (2 years plus 6-month extension). The Expert Partner will support the VRU's wider youth digital safety programme, including Trusted Adult Training, Digital Youth Work Pilots, and Local Authority Test-and-Learn Pilots. Desired Outcomes: A stronger evidence base on online harms, improved safeguarding practice, embedded youth voice, stronger programme design and evaluation, improved coordination across partners, and increased VRU influence locally, regionally and nationally. Market Engagement: Virtual market warming session scheduled for 29 June 2026 at 3PM via MS Teams. Partnership bids are encouraged. Interested organisations can register via Eventbrite or email vruprocurement@london.gov.uk to connect with potential partners.
