This tender presents substantial opportunities for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) looking to expand their services. Companies that specialise in social work, housing support, and youth services will be particularly well-suited to compete, as they can contribute to providing a safe and supportive environment for young individuals transitioning to independent living. The requirement to train and support hosts for the lodgings further enhances the potential for engaging local community members and organisations in this meaningful service delivery.
