Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Islington has successfully completed the procurement process for the "2526-0168 Young People's Supported Accommodation Pathway - 16-25 years" project. This initiative, rooted in Islington, London, focuses on providing supported accommodation for young people with diverse needs, ultimately preparing them for independent living. This procurement progression navigated through the Planning, Tender, and Award stages, with an award notice published on 23 December 2025. The procured services, classified under the health and social work services category, follow an open procedure. The awarded contract is for a six-year term starting on 1 April 2026, with an option to expand from the initial 100 units to an additional 100 based on demand.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in supported accommodation and those interested in extending their operations within the social services sector. This framework is adaptable, offering new and existing providers, particularly SMEs and VCSEs, the flexibility to engage in call-off contracts over its duration. Collaborating with a local authority like Islington Council opens avenues for expanding service offerings and establishing long-term partnerships in the public sector. This contract prioritises not just housing provision, but also integrated approaches to health, education, and wellbeing, appealing to innovative firms committed to social impact and the holistic development of young people.

Notice Title

2526-0168 Young People's Supported Accommodation Pathway - 16-25 years

Notice Description

Supported Accommodation Pathway for Young People (16-25 years old) with diverse needs in Islington.
