    Brief

    Southend-on-Sea City Council is awarding a direct contract to Homecare Group for the provision of Transitional Supported Housing Services. This is a continuation of existing services valued at £51,259 excluding VAT, running from 1st October 2026 to 31st March 2027. The service provides housing-related support to ex-offenders and individuals at risk of offending aged 18-65 years. Support includes accommodation and wraparound assistance to help service users reintegrate into the community and reduce reoffending risks. This direct award is made under the Procurement Act 2023 due to service continuity requirements and because Homecare Group is the sole provider, owning both the building and delivering integrated support services on site.
