Motiv8 is a 3-year £9.7 million programme funded by the National Lottery through the BIG Lottery Fund and European Union through the European Social Fund (2014-2020) as part of the Building Better Opportunities programme. The programme commenced in Nov 2016, going live to participants in Jan 2017. The programme is currently due to end delivery in 31st Oct 2019. The scope of the proposed Contract is to provide a comprehensive independent analysis of the Motiv8 Programme that. • Demonstrates the programmes impact in moving people with multiple and complex needs in Greater Manchester closer to the labour market. • Acts as an evidence base to prove to the programme funders how the funding has been used to 'Make a Difference' in the situations, circumstances and behaviours of people and communities across the Greater Manchester City region and how the programme has realised its aims and objectives. • Provides an evidence base to inform future policy and practice that can be used to inform stakeholders, partners, and funders and support the commissioning of similar future contracts and services.
