London’s Violence Reduction Unit (VRU) MyEnds 3.0 Programme
Authority: Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime (Central government)
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionMyEnds 3.0 is an evolved version of the flagship VRU MyEnds programme which will run from April 2027 until March 2029. This new iteration will allow us to implement key learning from the MyEnds programmes and strengthen the key components of the overall programme design, optimising innovation with more targeted strategic alignment.
The MyEnds programme utilises a hyper-local approach to address needs in neighbourhoods across the capital that are most affected by high and sustained levels of violence. The core model endorsed by the VRU for this programme is based on the empowerment of communities, recognising the critical role and collective impact community stakeholders have in local violence reduction initiatives. This is achieved through the delivery of key activity strands, including strengthening local partnerships, young people and community participation, capacity building of the grassroots sector, and the delivery of locally informed interventions.
The VRU is seeking Provider(s) to deliver the programme across eligible boroughs.
Eligible Boroughs:
- Lambeth 2. Croydon 3. Southwark 4. Tower Hamlets 5. Newham 6. Enfield 7. Haringey 8. Hackney 9. Lewisham 10. Islington 11. Camden 12. Brent 13. Hillingdon 14. Greenwich 15. Wandsworth 16. Barking and Dagenham

Local means the winner is registered in the region where that award was delivered.

i
How long buyers here take to decide after bids close.

Only decided tenders count, so slow ones still waiting are not in.
Half of these awards have an award date within 103 days of the bid deadline.
i
How often work is awarded with no recorded rival.
Direct awards and tenders where every published lot count shows one bid.
Thin markets produce this too; it is not proof of a tailored specification.
Direct awards or one recorded bid are common here. Check the route before spending time on a bid.

About this data
- Source. Official UK public procurement notices (Find a Tender), reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0. New notices arrive through the day; the figures are rebuilt nightly.
- Two views, kept apart. The authority’s own track record and the wider market for the same kind of work sit side by side and are never mixed. Where the local picture is too thin, a figure widens to a broader market and says which one it used.
- Forecasts are labelled. The price forecast and its range, possible competitors and the earlier-work matches are our estimates from past awards: not published facts, not win chances and not price advice. Official notices do not say who is bidding.
- Every figure shows what it rests on. Not every notice publishes a bid count, a value or a delivery region, so each figure carries the number of records behind it, and one built on few records is marked as such. The on a figure explains it; the counting rules are in the methodology. Spotted something wrong? Tell us.
