Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Southwark procured mental health supported housing and related social work services across several buildings in Southwark, London (CPV 85300000). The service is for people with multiple and complex needs who may be socially excluded. Mental health is a common factor, alongside homelessness, contact with the criminal justice system, substance misuse and social care needs. The purpose is to provide supported accommodation and promote social inclusion. Requirements were divided by support level and building availability, including forensic and complex-needs accommodation with 24-hour support, complex-needs accommodation with 24-hour support, and medium levels of support during the day. This is a specialist health and social care opportunity for organisations able to provide accommodation-based support in Southwark.

The procurement has concluded and active awards were made under the restricted procedure. Turning Point Services Ltd was awarded Lot 1A at £3,093,120 and Lot 1B at £2,304,720, with contracts signed on 20 July 2026 and 31 March 2026 respectively. Peabody Trust was awarded Lot 2A at £1,240,001; Southside Partnership Lot 2D at £877,401; Hestia Housing and Support Lot 3 at £2,317,722 and Lot 4A at £1,581,909; and Southside Partnership Lot 4B at £1,375,269, while Hestia Housing and Support also received Lot 4C at £1,706,299. Those contracts were signed on 31 March 2026. Each contract has an initial four-year period, with extensions of up to two further years. Lots 1B, 2A and 3 had between three and ten bids; the recorded evaluation basis was 85% quality and 15% presentations. Lots 1A, 2D, 4A, 4B and 4C were also cancelled in the lot data despite their active awards.

This award demonstrates sustained Southwark demand for specialist supported housing delivered across multiple buildings and support models, from daytime medium support to 24-hour provision for forensic, complex and multiple needs. Credible competitors will need established experience in mental health supported accommodation, social inclusion and services for people affected by homelessness, criminal justice involvement, substance misuse and social care needs. They will also need the operational capacity to staff accommodation-based services consistently, including 24-hour support where required, and to work across several Southwark buildings. The competition attracted three to ten bids per awarded lot, including substantial SME participation, indicating that smaller providers can compete where they have the required expertise, delivery capacity and suitable housing arrangements. The evaluation evidence places greater emphasis on quality than presentations, so service design and delivery credibility are central.
