Description

Stafford Borough Council submitted a bid to the Department of Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC) for Rough Sleeper Initiative 2022 - 2025 funding for two inter-related projects.
The first project is for six units of high-level supported accommodation that will form part of the local rough sleeper pathway. This pathway will contribute to ending rough sleeping in Stafford by 2025 and increase the housing options available to individuals with multiple and complex needs who are rough sleeping, or at risk of rough sleeping.
The overall aim of the project is to get individuals with a history of rough sleeping or repeat homelessness into sustainable accommodation, with tailored support that addresses underlying needs. The approach will provide strength-based solutions and ongoing support so that no one has to spend a night on our streets and instances of rough sleeping and repeat homelessness will be reduced.
The second project is a coproduction model that will engage the voices of those with lived experience, involving the hardest to reach rough sleepers so their views and experiences become an integral element in developing services for people.
To end rough sleeping, we need to shift the balance of power, listen to the voices of those with lived experience and adapt our services and strategies accordingly.
This will not take place overnight but requires long-term commitment to gain trust, expertise and provide a platform for genuine change.

It is anticipated that additional resources will be accessed by providers via charitable sources to complement and enhance the core offer through full or partial match funding. Any match funding values brought to the contract by the provider will be distinctly separate from the obligations of the Authority and will not account towards the value payable under the contract by the Authority.

All underspend must therefore be returned by the Contractor at the end of the Funding year so bidders should not plan for funds being retained if underspent.

Funding must not be spent on any of the following: • religious activities outside of projects benefiting the wider community and not containing religious content; political or lobbying activities. • loan repayments; or • activities that make profit for private gain. • Campaigning activities • Funding must not be used for capital works e.g. building repairs, but can be used for other capital costs such as ICT equipment to enhance your communications and help reach local people. £1,201,000 p.a.

Communities First Behaviour Change

This research project will use appropriate evidence-based behaviour change theories to identify factors (e.g. personal, institutional, or systemic) that are barriers or enablers to embedding the CF approach across Northumberland County Council and key partners. The results of this analysis will support NCC and relevant partner organisations to understand and address these barriers and enablers to move further and faster to adopting the Communities First approach. Methods and measurement The Provider will propose their methodology in their tender submission for this work, but broadly it will be expected to include: • Selection and application of appropriate evidence-based behaviour change theory/theories to underpin the analysis. • Identification of the target behaviours that professionals and/or organisations need to adopt in order to implement the Communities First approach (also involve identifying current behaviours that do not support the approach and need to change). This would involve initial scoping work with NCC and key system partners to identify the target behaviours. • Use of appropriate qualitative research methodologies to analyse barriers and enablers for professionals and the wider organisation to delivering Communities First approach, using the evidence based behaviour change theory (see point 1 above). • Include both retrospective evaluation of adoption to date and analysis of anticipated barriers and enablers for wider adoption of the Communities First approach. • Provide relevant recommendations to support successful implementation and maintenance of Communities First approach across NCC and key system partners.
