There has been an increase in homelessness during the Covid Pandemic and the service is using a higher amount of hotel accommodation to meet this need. We estimate there is a need to provide a certain level of hotel accommodation for the next two years, and as a result we are planning to undertake a procurement exercise to ask that interested accommodation providers submit tenders to work with us. We are looking for a range of accommodation options for approx. 100 households within Sheffield. This will be single men or women, or couples. We do not envisage placing families into this type of accommodation. We want to be able to guarantee bed spaces in suitable venues across the city, that suit this mix of people. We are looking for: - Female only venues - Male only venues - Providers willing to take customers with some levels of risk. By risk, this could mean individuals who may be experiencing substance misuse (drug/alcohol issues), criminal and/or behaviour that has been a risk to themselves and others It is important to us that our customers are given a good standard of accommodation. We are looking for venues with: - en-suite bathroom options - good standard of cleanliness, health and safety standards and security - access to kitchen facilities - this could be basic, such as access to tea/coffee and a microwave/sink facility - Professionally managed venues We are experienced in dealing with this customer group, and can give support, advice, and regular visits - especially for any venues dealing with higher risk customers.
