The Executive Member is asked to approve the
Procurement Plan for Housing Related Support for young single
homeless people.
That the Executive Member approved the proposal to tender a remodelled service for accommodation based housing related support service and that the successful bidder provides 75 units. This service will be for 18 – 25 year olds in the borough with eligible support needs, at risk of homelessness including Care Leavers.
The existing service will cease on 31 August 2017. We have remodelled the service to meet the housing related support need for young people threatened with homelessness and a pathway for the provision of care leavers.
To not proceed with this remodelled service would result in increased costs to secure residential placements for care leavers therefore this would be the only alternative option.
