    Brief

    Wirral Council is seeking to identify viable service providers for short-term emergency accommodation specifically designed for Asian, Pacific, and Other Culturally-diverse (APOC) children and young people who present in crisis situations. This soft market testing exercise aims to explore options that would keep vulnerable young people out of hospital settings and other inappropriate environments. The council is engaging with potential suppliers to understand market capacity, service delivery models, and pricing for emergency placements that can provide immediate safe housing and support during critical periods. Suppliers should have experience working with diverse young populations and be able to respond quickly to urgent placement needs.
