The contracting authority currently operates a number of shared supported housing
schemes for single people presenting as homeless. Increasingly, their Housing
Solutions Team are handling single people with a range of complex needs
including:-
• History of Rough Sleeping
• Drug dependency
• Alcohol dependency
• Mental health conditions
Placing these individuals in standard shared supported housing has been
problematic, with placements failing and frequent anti-social behaviour (ASB)
disturbances being caused by residents and their visitors.
Often these people require more intensive housing management and support
as part of a wider independent living sustainment package.
They are seeking to establish a further supported housing scheme which offers
temporary housing for single adults (men and women) with complex needs.
We would expect a supplier will be able to offer around 25 self-contained
studio or 1 bedroom flats with shared facilities such as communal lounges and
gardens. They may own the properties directly or lease them from private
landlords. The units must be located within the London Borough of Havering.
They will ensure that support staff are available on site 24 hours every day.
