Notice Title

Contract for the Provision of Pre Departure Accommodation Welfare Services

Notice Description

Home Office Immigration Enforcement is responsible for removing from the UK foreign nationals who no longer have a legitimate right to remain in the UK under immigration law. Where a family, with no right to remain in the UK, chooses not to leave the UK voluntarily, as a last resort, the Home Office will take steps to ensure their departure using the Family Returns Process (FRP) which may include placing families, for a short duration, in pre-departure accommodation (PDA). A family in this context is defined, as a minimum, as one parent and one child under the age of 18. Pre-departure accommodation is provided as a self contained unit, within Tinsley House, an immigration site near Gatwick Airport. The Home Office has contracted with a partner to provide welfare services to families resident at the PDA.
