The procurement process is at the tender stage, with an open below threshold competition.

Important dates include an enquiry period ending on 7th May 2025 and a submission deadline on 14th May 2025.

The project's location falls under the region of UKI62 in Croydon, United Kingdom. This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in creative and artistic services, particularly those experienced in welfare services for children. Organisations such as SMEs and VCSEs are especially encouraged to participate, lending an ideal opportunity for businesses looking to expand their portfolio within the public sector.

With an award budget of up to £72,000 and criteria heavily weighted on quality (70%) over price (30%), businesses that can demonstrate innovative and responsive programme delivery aligned with the council's objectives stand to gain both financially and reputationally. The focus on local participation, specifically in Surrey, further highlights a preference for community-based organisations with expertise in creatively engaging young audiences through artistic platforms.
