Description
Brighton and Hove City Council is developing a new supported living service in Hove. The new development in Ingram Crescent, Hove will provide 28 self-contained flats for people with physical disability and acquired brain injury. The building will be wheelchair accessible throughout, have communal space and facilities for staff on site. The construction of the site is due to be completed in Spring 2026.
Following Market Engagement activities carried out in February 2021, and a Market Engagement Event and site visit in February 2025, the Commissioning team warmly invite potential Support Providers to a Market Briefing Event for the support service. This is not an invitation to tender.
The Registered Provider (landlord function) will be identified separately by the Council and it will be key for the chosen support provider to agree to work effectively with the nominated Registered Provider to deliver an efficient and joined-up service.
If you are a Registered Provider interested in hearing more about the landlord function for this service, please contact BHCC's Housing Team on: Kristin.Sjovorr@brighton-hove.gov.uk
Slides and associated Q&A from Preliminary Market Engagement activities will be shared with all providers registered for the Market Briefing and previous Market Engagement activities. These will also be available for information only as part of the tender pack.
