Notice Title
Housing and Health Needs Assessment
Notice Description
This contract is below threshold. The Public Health Team of Cardiff and Vale University Health Board recognises the important relationship between housing and health and is developing collaborative work on housing, within our Health Board and with wider NHS, local authority and third sector partners. To inform and target this work, we need to deepen our evidence-based understanding on how housing is affecting the health of our communities and whether unhealthy, unsafe, unsuitable or insecure housing is harming the health of certain population groups more than others. To do this, we require a Health Needs Assessment (HNA), which will systematically review the qualitative and quantitative evidence on housing and health in Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan. Alongside a wider assessment of housing and health, we are particularly interested in understanding more on how housing affects the health of children, people with disabilities, and the health of people in temporary housing situations. Hugh Irwin Associates have been awarded this below-threshold contract following an open-tender via eTender Wales.
