## Summary

The contract for the "Provision of Support within Homelessness Accommodation (Penzance)" was awarded by Cornwall Council, a public authority operating at the sub-central government level in the UK. This tender, initiated under a limited procurement process classified as "below threshold - limited competition," falls under the industry category of health and social work services. The project, completed and awarded to St Petrocs, aims to deliver trauma-informed support in a shared housing environment to promote recovery and resilience among residents. The contract, valued at £49,734.71, spans from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2027, focusing on flexible support hours designed to meet individual needs, thereby ensuring the psychological and physical safety of the involved parties. Despite its limited scope, the tender was successfully awarded, and the contract is now active.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health and social services, particularly those with experience or roots in trauma-informed support or homelessness intervention. Businesses that operate as SMEs or possess a social enterprise dimension might find such contracts particularly aligned with their capabilities, especially given the focus on promoting autonomy and a supportive environment without the need for overnight support services. Companies interested in contributing to community welfare and support initiatives in the Penzance region may consider similar future tenders to expand their service offerings and impact. This opportunity also underscores the potential for organisations to engage in strategic partnerships with public authorities to tackle pressing social challenges effectively.

## Notice

This project focuses on delivering trauma informed support within homelessness accommodation, designed to address the underlying causes of homelessness and promote recovery and resilience. The property comprises four rooms in a shared house in the centre of Penzance. Given the scale of the service, staffing is estimated to include 1 FTE support worker, along with a proportion of line management cover, and an estimated additional 0.2 FTE support worker to provide cover during leave or training, in line with industry standards. Staffing levels will prioritise psychological and physical safety, with robust lone working protocols and safeguards in place to protect both residents and staff. Support hours will be scheduled flexibly to respond to individual needs, ensuring residents receive timely and compassionate support. It is not anticipated that overnight support or concierge services will be required, as the model is designed to promote autonomy and stability within a safe environment.
