Description
Kirklees Council wish to purchase a housing related support service for Young People and Care Leavers who are homeless. The service will be in a Supported Accommodation setting providing accommodation and support 365 days per year.
The principal aim of the Service will be to provide safety, security and life skills to young people aged 16 to 21 years old who are homeless enabling and encouraging them to develop the skills they require to successfully live independently in the future.
The site of the accommodation will be at Lockwood, Huddersfield HD1. The accommodation consists of 9 en-suite bedrooms, communal living room, dining room, kitchen, meeting space, dual purpose emergency crash pad / key working room and office. The dual purpose crash pad / key working room will be made available, wherever possible, in an emergency situation but not at the expense of the service being provided to existing service users.
The Landlord of the premises is Connect Housing Association Limited, a charitable association registered under the Co-operative and Community Benefit Societies Act 2014 (No. IP17445R) and with the Regulator of Social Housing (No. L2285). The landlord is a Registered Provider of social housing and a Community Benefit Society.
The Landlord is regulated by the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) and must comply with its Regulatory Framework. Where housing management services are contracted out to a managing agent then a Housing Management Agreement is required which sets out the roles and responsibilities of each party (the Housing Management Agreement).
The successful provider will be expected to enter into a management agreement with the landlords of the property to carry out day to day management of the building, management of occupancy arrangements for the people living there, including rent collection arrears management, anti-social behaviour management and repairs and maintenance as well as housing related support functions. The provider will receive a predetermined fee from the landlord for carrying out the Housing Management function.
