MARKET ENGAGEMENT: RECOMMISSIONING OF THE TOWER HAMLETS SUPPORTED HOUSING PATHWAY

Tender description

The London Borough of Tower Hamlets is due to re-procure its Young People's Supported Housing Pathway, which includes supported accommodation and self-contained flats for young people aged 16-25 who are in and on the edge of care (e.g. children in care, care leavers and homeless young people). The contracts within the Pathway cover the costs of support. Children's Social Care separately cover rental costs for 16- and 17-year-olds in care, and for care leavers who do not have recourse to public funds. The rental costs of other 18+ year olds in the Pathway are paid through either Housing Benefit or the housing element of Universal Credit. The market engagement includes: • 2 market engagement questionnaires - one for landlords and one for support providers; • 2 90-minute workshops, one for support providers only, and one for both landlords and support providers.
