Description

The Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner (OPCC) is one of eighteen areas that have secured funding from the Home Office to develop a Violence Reduction Unit (VRU) and commission services to deliver interventions that reduce serious violence. The Northumbria VRU uses a Public Health Approach to tackle violent crime by working collaboratively with police, local government, health agencies, education representatives and other community representatives to address the underlying causes of serious violence.

The VRU recognises the need for earlier intervention to strengthen the co-ordinated community response to domestic abuse.  Families, friends and community members are usually the first to know, and often the best placed to offer support, if someone they know is being controlled, scared or hurt by a partner or family member.  

The VRU is therefore seeking to match fund the Findaway Project to enable it to work across Northumbria to fill a current gap in the community response to domestic abuse.  The service is not aimed at victims or perpetrators as there are already services in place providing that support - instead it is aimed at those informal networks who are close to the victim or the person who is causing the harm. Findaway seeks to equip families, friends and communities with the knowledge and skills they need to effectively support the people they care about.

Social Housing Emerging Disrupters (SHED 5) Framework Agreement

Established in 2004, Procurement for Housing (PfH) is a national procurement consortium dedicated to the social housing sector and supported by the National Housing Federation (NHF), Chartered Institute of Housing (CIH) and HouseMark. Collectively our Members manage more than 90% of UK’ social housing stock, with PfH helping them to achieve efficiency savings using a wide range of services including framework agreements, dynamic purchasing systems, spend analyses, strategy reviews, consolidated billing and comprehensive reporting. PfH is a contracting authority under section 2 of the Procurement Act 2023 and a centralised procurement authority under section 1(4) of that Act. Please refer to www.pfh.co.uk for additional information. PfH is administered by Inprova Limited and is headquartered in the North West of England with over 20 years of expertise and experience offering a complete procurement solutions package across outsourcing, technology and consultancy. By integrating procurement services and technology, Inprova operates as a delivery partner, supporting business performance improvement for the public sector. PfH intends to establish The Social Housing Emerging Disruptors (SHED) 5 Framework to promote innovation through establishing national arrangements to provide innovative goods, works and services to the housing market and the wider public sector. The first Social Housing Emerging Disrupters (SHED) Framework Agreement was launched in January 2022, comprising 18 innovative solutions. The aim was to create a framework of innovation permitting start-ups, small and medium sized businesses and the voluntary sector as well as established larger companies to offer their innovative products and services to the public sector. The second SHED framework (SHED 2) comprising a further 20 suppliers with a range of innovative solutions was launched in January 2023 and was shortlisted for the 'Innovation Procurement Project of the Year' Award by Built Environment Network. SHED 3 commenced in January 2024. SHED 4, comprising 17 solutions was launched in January 2025. To reflect the emerging nature of innovation, a fifth SHED Framework (SHED 5) will be procured in Autumn 2025. The solution will enable PfH Members to procure a range of products and services that offer real and innovative benefit to the housing and wider public sector. The framework will provide successful suppliers with the opportunity to promote their innovation and will allow fledgling markets to test their true potential, providing the foundations for success and wider adoption across the public sector. The Framework Agreement will operate on a national basis, providing an offering suitable for members of PfH in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland and other public bodies permitted to use the Framework Agreement. Suppliers will not be excluded for not being able to supply all regions. To register your interest, or find out more information, please email [email protected]
