Property Decorating and Furnishing Packages

Tender description

Cumberland Council is committed to resettling refugee families under the below schemes in 2024 to support wider UK need. Additionally, Cumberland Council has pledged to continue to support families under ‘Safe and Legal Routes’ in 2025, with the agreed pledge being 50 individuals across the region: • UK Global Resettlement Scheme (UKRS) • Afghanistan Relocation and Assistance Policy (ARAP) • Afghanistan Citizens Relocation Scheme (ACRS) All refugees arriving in Cumbria and specifically in the Cumberland Council area have been displaced by war/conflict and referred by the Home Office. Refugees who arrive and settled in the Cumberland Council area do so with little or no personal belongings and do not have the means to furnish their new homes or purchase items that are essential to daily living. The primary purpose of this service is to ensure that Cumberland Council provides accommodation that is fit for purpose and meets the required standard. Properties which are secured for this programme can be a mixture of social and private accommodation, which require decorating to bring them up to a liveable standard. Additionally, each property will require an entire furnishing package, including white goods, carpets and curtains/blinds.
