Expert Partner for Youth Digital Safety in London

The London Violence Reduction Unit (VRU), hosted within the Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC), seeks an expert partner to support its digital safety programme addressing online harms for young people aged 11-25. The commission is split into two lots: Lot 1 (Research, Policy and Evidence Partner) and Lot 2 (Programme Development and Learning Partner). Bidders may apply for one or both lots, and collaborative consortia are welcome. The provider must demonstrate expertise in online harms, youth engagement, and public health approaches, with a focus on violence prevention. The contract value is not specified, but the scale suggests a significant multi-year engagement.
