## Summary

The Buckinghamshire Council is planning a procurement process for the Rough Sleeper Outreach Service. This service falls under the 'Other community, social and personal services' industry category. The procurement involves engaging with rough sleepers to offer tailored support and accommodation services. The engagement end date for this procurement is set for 18th September 2024.

This tender provides an opportunity for businesses involved in community and social services to compete for the contract. Given the nature of the Rough Sleeper Outreach Service, businesses with experience in providing support services to vulnerable populations would be well-suited to participate. The procurement process is currently in the planning stage, and the buying organisation, Buckinghamshire Council, will be responsible for selecting the vendor to deliver this vital service.

## Notice

The Rough Sleeper Service and their outreach workers will visit locations where rough sleepers have been reported and will contact and engage with the rough sleepers that they find. The Rough Sleeper Service receives around 750 referrals per year. Once a client has been verified by the service this enables them to receive assistance from the Rough Sleeper project group in accordance with requirements from DLUHC. The Rough Sleeper Service assess the needs of individual rough sleepers and offer them options of support and accommodation services. Workers will engage with rough sleepers using a variety of techniques, including motivational interviewing, and offer tailored support. In some cases, this will involve repeated visits and contact with the rough sleeper. Outreach workers will liaise with other agencies with whom the rough sleeper has or has not had contact, including police, health, probation and providers of supported accommodation. The overall aim will be to ensure that the rough sleeper is receiving all necessary support and to try to help them move off the streets and into safe and sustainable accommodation.
