Description

Dumfries and Galloway Council is seeking expressions of interest from organisations with experience in the delivery outreach housing support for people (aged 16 and over) who are homeless or threatened with homelessness. Organisations noting an interest must be able to provide appropriate support within all three areas of Dumfries and Galloway region as specified above. The organisation(s) must be registered with the Care Inspectorate as a Housing Support provider and be able to support homeless people and those threatened with homelessness with additional issues such as physical and/or mental health, learning difficulties, substance misuse issues, communications difficulties and challenging behaviour (this list is not exhaustive). The provider of this service will be a key partner in the delivery of the outcomes of the Dumfries and Galloway Council’s Rapid Rehousing Transition Plan. This will include working with the Council and other key partners to develop and deliver personalised Housing Plans for service users to ensure a managed transition to suitable settled accommodation which meets the needs of the service user (where appropriate). This arrangement will be for 12 months.
