Description

The London Borough of Tower Hamlets (the Council) is seeking an innovative and flexible bid that can demonstrate the capacity to successfully manage a diverse portfolio of supported housing services, including floating support services along with the provision of a broad range of support to meet the needs of young people at different stages in their journey towards independence.

The Council's supported housing vision is to ensure that services make a positive contribution to improve the quality of life of vulnerable socially excluded people, living in the Council, through the delivery of personalised preventative and early intervention housing support services.

The Council intends to commission Young People's Supported Housing Services for vulnerable young people with complex needs including 16-17 year olds, those at risk of homelessness and those leaving care. The services will provide access to realistic housing options that promote young people's safety and wellbeing while ensuring access to employment training and education opportunities.
