Engagement process description

At our previous workshop on 15th July 2025, Devon County Council provided an update on the recommissioning of Homelessness Prevention Services and Supported Accommodation for 16+. We gathered thoughts and ideas around the recommendations from the needs analysis, and considerations for the new model. We advised we would use this to design the model with District Council colleagues and meet again at the end of September 2025 to share the proposed model and gather thoughts and feedback on this. The purpose of the engagement event is to share the proposed model of support for Post 16 and gather thoughts and feedback to continue co-designing this.

This event will be held on 22nd September 2025 at Exeter Racecourse, Kennford, Exeter EX6 7XS.

Arrival from 9:30am with event running from 10:00-13:00.
