Cambridgeshire County Council (CCC) is inviting tenders for Young Persons Housing Related Support Services. Our vision is to provide accessible, good quality and cost effective housing-related support that promotes independence, social inclusion, complements other services and reduces or prevents the need for access to crisis and high cost statutory services.

A wide range of people may need ‘housing related support’ to prevent a loss of tenancy, to develop skills to move into and manage their own home, to increase their capacity for independent living or to prevent them moving to residential or institutional care. Housing related support services can offer long or short term support options, with the support activities tailored to a person’s specific needs.

The tender is split into four Lots, potential providers are invited to tender for one or more of the Lots. There will be one contract awarded for each Lot.
