Award outcome

Description

West Northamptonshire Council will be inviting tenders for its supported accommodation service in Oasis House, Northampton. The Service is for people who are identified as having experienced rough sleeping and those identified as being at risk of rough sleeping or becoming homeless, addressing a range of medium to high level needs, acknowledging that different individuals require differing levels of support. The Service will work with the individual to understand what support they need to live independently, by assessing their ability to manage daily tasks, maintain a safe environment, and access community services. The service is divided into two parts: Part A comprises of 48 bed spaces for people identified as experiencing rough sleeping or at risk of rough sleeping, who have a mixture of medium and high support needs, including those who need to 'step up' from lower level of supported accommodation service. The Service will offer support to move on and sustain independence, including work, learning and employment, resilience and building links within the community.  Part B comprises 11 assessment beds, on the ground floor, for up to 28 days, to allow for rapid and comprehensive assessments of individual needs and onward placement in an appropriate service. The facility is within the main Oasis House building but accessed through a key-fob controlled door; through which residents in the main building will not have access. All access will be via referral from the Outreach Team, which may include on- the night emergency placement.
