The current accommodation and support model for homeless people and rough sleepers in Brighton and Hove has been in place since 2007. The needs of homeless people in the city have changed over the past 9 years and the city is seeing increased numbers of rough sleepers, an increase in demand for supported accommodation services and increasing numbers of homeless people with multiple and complex support needs.

The Council is remodelling its services to meet the changing needs of homeless people, target resources and improve the outcomes for this section of the population. The Council is seeking providers to deliver Supported Accommodation services at various locations with Brighton and Hove and the Broader Market Rental Area. Please see the Service Specifications for full details.

This is the first procurement process of the remodel, with two further opportunities to be issued later in 2017.
