Introduction: To help define and develop Wrexham County Borough Councils (WCBC) Procurement Strategy and Service Specification for Young Persons Supported Accommodation, WCBC wishes to engage with potential providers prior to the release of any official procurement exercise. The purpose of this engagement/market testing is to provide WCBC with the opportunity to better understand the market in order to refine its approach and shape future service delivery. Once WCBC has engaged with the market and understood the offerings available, a procurement exercise may be conducted (route to market currently undecided). Service Overview: Wrexham Housing Support Grants and Development Team are seeking to re-commission 9 units of supported accommodation delivered from a single site within Wrexham County Borough for young people aged 16-25.

The service provider would be expected to enter into a management agreement with a Registered Social Landlord relating to the accommodation. Accommodation costs/housing management costs would not be covered by the service contract. The service contract would be for delivery of eligible housing-related support funded through Housing Support Grant. Next Steps: The aim of this market engagement is to allow potential and existing providers to discuss the future provision of the Young Persons Supported Accommodation service with WCBC and ask questions about the process for the forthcoming tender opportunity. It will also provide an opportunity for WCBC to better understand the marketplace and develop its requirements accordingly.
