Description

Warwickshire County Council (WCC) wish to commission a framework of primarily local providers to call off beds as and when required, including emergency accommodation but also with the ability to call off block beds at a preferential rate once consistency of demand is established.

The aim of the framework is to provide sufficient supported accommodation for Warwickshire's young people 16 and over who are leaving care, at risk of becoming homeless and Unaccompanied Asylum-Seeking Children (UASC) and reduce the need for spot purchases of supported accommodation.


A Competitive Dialogue process will be used.
