TENDER FOR EXTERNAL EVALUATION
Mentor UK is seeking a London-based evaluator to undertake the external evaluation of the London Youth Involvement Project (LYIP).
LYIP will bring together a group of young people aged 12-15 from across London to volunteer as Youth Advisers to the capital’s drug misuse prevention sector, to ensure that all policy and practice relating to prevention work with young people in London is directly informed by the views and experiences of young people themselves. You can find out more information about the project here.
This is a small tender and would suit a freelance individual with experience of evaluating projects working with young people, volunteering and public sector organisations.
You can download the Evaluation Brief here. If you’d like to express an interest in this contract, please send the required application materials to Roxanne Holman no later than Friday 26th March 2010.
Mentor UK continues to increase its profile as the leading UK agency working to prevent drug related harm to children and young people. We are working with government departments and other agencies to influence and effect prevention policy. We have also established a database with more than 1,700 contacts, both supporters and influencers, and over 1,200 people now receive our six-monthly newsletter.
To take forward our prevention activities, Mentor UK's Trustees agreed a five-year Strategic Plan which focuses, as with our previous Plan, on four key objectives, within an international context:
• To influence drug misuse prevention policy
• To support good practice in drug misuse prevention
• To support drug misuse prevention research
• To increase the profile of Mentor and drug misuse prevention
