## Summary

Cornwall Council has awarded a contract for supported accommodation aimed at young people including care leavers, young parents, and young families. The procurement falls under the category of community, social, and personal services and focuses on providing safe and supportive housing for vulnerable youth in Truro, United Kingdom. The procurement stage is complete, and the contract, valued at approximately £12.6 million, spans from 1 April 2025 to 31 March 2030, with a possible extension to 2032. This direct award contract was justified due to the supplier's exclusive property rights, ensuring no viable alternatives were available.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in social care services, housing management, and non-profit organisations focused on youth support. Companies with expertise in providing comprehensive support services for vulnerable youth can benefit from the long-term nature of this contract. With a clear need for dedicated services to support 16 to 24-year-olds in their transition to independent living, any business capable of meeting these demands and adhering to stringent quality standards can leverage this contract to establish a strong presence in the community and expand their organisational reach.

## Notice

Supported accommodation is one of several housing options that are used by Cornwall Council to accommodate vulnerable young people. The young people accessing this service will have involvement with social care or be at risk of homelessness, with the service designed to prioritise 16 and 17 year olds and care leavers up to the age of 24 years. The intended outcome for young people in supported accommodation is that they are provided with an environment where they can thrive and receive a safe and supportive transition to adulthood and independent living.

### Procurement Information

The direct award of a contract to the provider in this instance pursuant to Section 41(1)(a) of the Procurement Act 2023 is justified under Schedule 5 paragraph 5 (single suppliers) on the basis that the provider is in possession of certain exclusive rights to the properties through their freehold interest in the properties and therefore has the exclusive right to determine which providers deliver services within those properties. There are no reasonable alternatives available in relation to the delivery of the services.
