In recognition of the importance of embedding community voice and lived experiences throughout the research process, the VRU are commissioning both a research partner and a community partner to work in collaboration. This approach ensures the research appropriately and meaningfully reflects the experiences of those it aims to serve and that research findings will be relevant and informed.

In close collaboration with the research partner, the role of the community partner will involve: Co-developing the research methodology Convening and engage a cohort of relevant research participants Co-designing research outputs that reflect community needs Provide ongoing advice and guidance to ensure the research remains nuanced and deeply informed by local insights This collaborative commissioning approach demonstrates the VRU’s commitment to partnership, inclusivity, and ensuring research outcomes genuinely inform policy and commissioning decisions. The findings will help to shape more effective, responsive tertiary support services for young people affected by violence across London. We invite organisations with strong community links and ability to engage young people impacted by interpersonal violence to apply. The total contract value is up to £20,000, contract term is 15 months from the contract award date. Deadline for submission of tenders is the 15th October 2025 by 1pm, tenders should only be submitted via Delta. Clarification deadline is the 1st October 2025.

Tertiary prevention also seeks to prevent further acts of violence’.
