Community Money Education and Early Intervention Advice Model

Award outcome

Description

The Council is seeking to commission a preventative, community-enabled money education and early intervention model to be delivered by the Voluntary, Community, Faith, Social Enterprise (VCFSE) sector. The model will focus on financial education and resilience, money confidence, and early identification of financial risk, supporting residents before problems escalate into unmanageable debt or crisis, and before statutory or specialist debt advice models (e.g. Citizens Advice) are required. The Council recognises that VCFSE organisations are well placed to deliver trusted, accessible and culturally appropriate education within communities and wishes to commission a model that aligns with our neighbourhood networks, is embedded locally, partnership-led, and prevention-focused. The Council would like a Lead Provider model, with the ability to deliver education directly and coordinate a consortium or partnership of VCFSE organisations, including smaller community groups across our neighbourhood networks. The Lead Provider will be responsible for the contract management and governance, quality assurance, performance reporting, financial management and sub-contractor support and oversight.
