The brief

Following a successful bid to the Single Homeless Accommodation Programme (SHAP) fund Dorset Council was awarded funding to deliver a 6 bed 'complex women's unit, with support' - breakdown below: Revenue - Yr1 - £8,807.50, Yr2 - £211,375, Yr3 - £211,375, Yr4 - £202,567.50.

The Capital grant awarded has allowed the Council to purchase a suitable 6-bedroom unit which will provide accommodation for female rough sleepers.

The acquisition of the accommodation is outside of the procurement process.

The revenue funding is awarded by the Department of Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC) and the aim of the funding is to support rough sleepers into settled accommodation and support the government's aim to eliminate rough sleeping by the end of the current Parliament.

Revenue funding allocated to this project is made up of £584,125 from the SHAP revenue support grant and £50,000 from the Homelessness Prevention Grant (HPG).

This provides the Council with a total of £634,125 to deliver support for a 3-year period.

There is a need to procure a bespoke support service for women because the Council does not have a service of this type in Dorset.

Funding is high profile and is subject to monthly meetings with advisors from DLUHC.

Progress will also be monitored on a quarterly basis through Key Performance Indicators set by DLUHC.

This was a Further Competition via Lot 19 of the Dorset Care, Support, Housing and Community Safety Framework.

Lot 19 of the Framework is 'Living Well (C) - Housing related support services.'
