The Client aims to award a 36 month contract starting in April 2023 for the delivery of an evidence and theory based National active

220,000 to GBP 230,000 exc. VAT (GBP 276,000 inc. VAT) over the initial contract term with an option to extend for a further 12 months.
Bystander training programmes aim to:
- Empower people to challenge attitudes and behaviours that are supportive of violence within their peer group or community.
- In doing so, they aim to change behaviour and decrease the likelihood of violence occurring.
- Many bystander programmes also aim to educate people on supporting and signposting victims/survivors of violence to increase access to support
The provider is expected to develop an innovative model of community based bystander training that will work for Welsh communities. The pilot should be based on evidence of what works in bystander training and should be rooted in bystander theory. The target audience of this training should be considered carefully and identified clearly in the application, including detailed information on how participants will be recruited for training.
The aims of this initiative will be to:
- Increase knowledge of VAWDASV and its warning signs
- Change attitudes so individuals can recognise a situation as problematic and understand why it is important to act
- Build skills so individuals possess the right knowledge and skills to respond safely.
