UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council commissioned a reconnection worker for its Housing First support services. The service falls within health and social work and community support. It is intended to provide reconnection support to people receiving Housing First assistance. Delivery is in the Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council area. St Mungo Community Housing is the selected provider. This is a single service requirement rather than a supply of goods or a construction project.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. The Council made a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, under the light-touch regime. St Mungo Community Housing was awarded the contract. The contract was signed on 25 March 2026, runs from 1 April 2026 to 30 November 2027, and is valued at £155,436 including the stated gross amount. The award covers one lot for the reconnection worker service. No competitive evaluation basis is recorded; the process was conducted without competition.

For providers of Housing First and community support, this award shows that the Council buys dedicated reconnection-worker capacity as part of its housing support services. A credible future competitor would need to deliver practical, person-centred reconnection support for people supported through Housing First and work effectively within a local authority service. Relevant experience in housing-related support and community or social work would be directly pertinent to this requirement. St Mungo Community Housing, a large voluntary and community-sector provider, secured the award, demonstrating that an established specialist provider was selected. The opportunity is a defined, single-service requirement, so suppliers should be able to provide the required workforce and maintain continuity of support across the contract term.
