## Summary

The Knowsley Council is procuring a Homeless Prevention and Accommodation Service titled "Alt Bank House," aimed at supporting adults who are homeless or at risk of homelessness, particularly those with complex support needs. This procurement is currently in the Award stage, with a total contract value of £1,800,000, and the contract period spanning from April 1, 2021, to March 31, 2024. The service will primarily operate at Alt Bank House Hostel, located in Fazakerley, Liverpool. The open procurement method included a tender period that concluded on November 2, 2020.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses, particularly those involved in health and social work services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to compete, given the service's focus on delivering comprehensive support for vulnerable individuals, including those experiencing mental health issues and substance dependencies. Companies that can demonstrate experience in providing accommodation and support services in similar settings would be well-suited for this contract.

## Notice

The overall purpose of the service is to deliver support to adults who are homeless or at risk of homelessness, and also have multiple and complex support needs. The provision is delivered principally at Alt Bank House Hostel, Field Lane, Fazakerley, Liverpool L10 4XQ in Knowsley. Access to the service is 24 hours a day and will operate every night/day including Public Holidays. The service will have access to up 36 units of accommodation for adults who are homeless or at risk of homelessness and have medium and high support needs. The majority of the residents will have drugs, alcohol, mental health issues and debt management problems. The service will also operate a 'sit up' service at night and a daytime service for up to three individuals who would otherwise be rough sleeping. Individuals who have low, medium or high support needs can also access to the 'sit up'. The support the individuals receive will help them to develop their confidence and skills to prepare them for independent living and to sustain a tenancy.
