Description
The Supported Housing Strategy (Regulatory Oversight) Act 2023 places a statutory duty on Local Authorities in England to undertake a needs assessment and develop and deliver a Supported Housing Strategy. The Supported Housing Strategy is required to cover all 'Supported Exempt Accommodation' as defined in section 12 of the Supported Housing (Regulatory Oversight) Act 2023. Additionally Local Authorities need to include retirement / sheltered housing, even where this is not classified as Supported Exempt Accommodation. St Helens Borough Council is seeking to appoint an experienced organisation to develop its Supported Housing Strategy by March 2027. The Council website contains several core documents and published assessments which will be important contextual evidence including wider housing and care demands and demographic projections. The Contractor will also be expected to utilise this documentation alongside national data (e.g. census and subsequent updates) and sub regional data where available.
