## About this tender

The RSI funding round has supported a bid to develop the co-production of services with

current and former Rough Sleepers, for those based in the City of London as well as those

now housed outside of the area.

The City's objective is to ensure that the voice of those with lived experience contribute to

the review of existing service provision and help shape our future commissioning strategies.

A particular focus will be women and a better understanding of the common causes of

women becoming homeless.

The funding will see an initial consultation phase in 2022/23, building on the work of the City

Voices research report on the impact of the Everyone In campaign during the Covid

pandemic.

This initial stage will provide the framework which will support the City's Rough Sleeping and

Pathways team to develop a 3- year Co-production plan, which will be incorporated into the

Rough Sleeping Strategy 2023-27.

The outcomes of the co-production plan, once approved, will be the basis of a two -year

commissioned service to bring to life the commitments agreed in the strategy.

The current expectation is that this is likely to be a peer advocacy team who will ensure

rough sleepers:

- can better navigate key services
- have their voices heard in professional and partner forums,
- can work with staff to develop new commissioned services with their needs at the

forefront of service delivery.

However, to ensure the approach adheres to the principles of co-production, ensuring

ownership and support by the homeless community, the final picture of the service may differ

from initial expectations.

Rather than being seen as a risk, this represents a genuine opportunity to innovate service

delivery in an agile and flexible way. Current research on collaborative approaches

suggests the approach improves the chances of successful service delivery, which lessens

the risk of service failure.

The final commissioned service will be working closely with current City homelessness

teams and services, supporting a systems approach to working with homelessness.
