Bournemouth Borough Council and the Borough of Poole â&#128;&#156;The Councilsâ&#128;&#157; have since 2014 jointly commissioned a Rough Sleeper Outreach Service to meet the needs of their respective rough sleeper populations. The Councils wish to continue to jointly commission an assertive outreach service for rough sleepers to cover both boroughs.

The scope of the contract is to provide an assertive outreach service to support rough sleepers across both Bournemouth and Poole, working with individuals to address needs and access accommodation. This service includes severe weather emergency provision along with the provision of a drop in / day centre in both Local Authority areas.

Service requirements include 365 days a year availability and an outreach service that follows the assertive engagement model. The supplier will be required to address the housing and related support needs of individuals and implement the reconnections policies in each area, working with various partners as required.

The aim of the Bournemouth and Poole Rough Sleeper Team (BPRST) is to reduce rough sleeping as close to zero as possible across both Council Local Authority areas. The service delivered must be responsive and seek to quickly help rough sleepers into appropriate accommodation and assist individuals to access relevant support services in order to avoid repeat homelessness.

The contract will commence on 1 April 2017. TUPE will apply to this contract and will need to be considered when the tender documents are released.

The forecast contract value for this opportunity is between Â£268,000 and Â£350,000 per annum as it is dependent on the funding available to the local authority for the service.
