Description

Rutland County Council is seeking to identify and appoint and appoint a Specialist Service Provider for a countywide Housing and Homelessness Floating Support Service. The Council is committed to the provision and delivery of services for people who are homeless, at risk of homelessness or in housing need. This includes those already homeless, those in private rented accommodation, homeowners, and travellers. The Council wishes to identify a partner organisation who will co-locate and work collaboratively with the Council’s Housing Team and wider Council services to: • Support people with housing need in Rutland through proactive and preventative interventions that lead to: o Retention of their existing home. o Successful management of their new home (e.g., tenancy). o Increased capacity to participate and contribute to society. • Collaboratively design and develop responsive, flexible services which adapt to changing need. • Identify and draw in external funding that meets needs, strengthens the service, maximises delivery, value for money and enhances Rutland’s provision for vulnerable people.
