16/14 Practical Support Services

Tender description

Tamworth Borough Council, alongside its partners, intends to meet the challenge of preventing homelessness over the next four years, ensuring support is available to help people avoid being without a home. With demand upon the services likely to increase over the next few years, the form this support takes will vary with an emphasis on identifying people at risk as early as possible. To succeed in this challenge the Council needs to widen and strengthen the existing partnerships by assisting all stakeholders involved to recognise and then act upon the early signs that somebody might be at risk of homelessness. The contractor will help apply a customer focused, pro-active, problem solving approach to overcome housing difficulties in order to prevent homelessness.
