West London Rough Sleeping and Homelessness Prevention Grants Initiative for the Voluntary, Community and Faith Sector

Description

The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, on behalf of the West London Housing Partnership (partner boroughs of RBKC, Hammersmith & Fulham, Brent, Ealing, Hillingdon, Hounslow and Harrow), is carrying out pre-market engagement to help shape a potential grant funding programme targeting small to medium sized organisations in the local voluntary, community and faith sector (VCFS) organisations. The West London Housing Partnership is seeking innovative, community-led projects that strengthen our collective ability to provide early intervention to prevent homelessness and reduce rough sleeping across our seven boroughs. We would be particularly interested in any provision that could be utilised across multiple boroughs in the West London region. Subject to approval, the programme is expected to award grants with an average value of £50,000 per organisation, with the potential for larger awards of up to £100,000 where proposals demonstrate delivery across multiple boroughs. Please note this engagement relates to a potential grant scheme. This notice is issued to understand interest in the proposed programme, gather early feedback, and identify organisations that may wish to be contacted if the grant scheme is launched. No funding decisions will be made as part of this engagement. Further information is available in the attached Preliminary Market Engagement Questionnaire. Organisations interested in the potential programme are encouraged to review and complete the questionnaire. Any queries relating to this market engagement exercise should be submitted to: Laura.Palfreeman@rbkc.gov.uk Isabella.Peebles@rbkc.gov.uk For more information about this opportunity, please visit the Delta eSourcing portal at: https://www.delta-esourcing.com/tenders/UK-UK-London:-Health-and-social-work-services./DHVXC56BR2 To respond to this opportunity, please click here: https://www.delta-esourcing.com/respond/DHVXC56BR2
