The City is seeking proposals for 2 potential models of service, one of which will be commissioned, dependent upon funding being available. Throughout this specification, the term service user encompasses all the potential users within whichever option is commissioned. The options are: • OPTION 1 - CITY RESIDENTS AND HRA TENANTS ONLY (City residents and tenants living on City of London housing estates outside of the 'square mile’). • OPTION 2 - CITY RESIDENTS, HRA TENANTS AND WORKERS (as Option 1 but including City workers) 1.3 Should Option 1 be commissioned, or the service provider wishes to provide additional services, providers are encouraged to seek alternative funding mechanisms including through the City of London’s central grants programme and the Community infrastructure levy neighbourhood fund. 1.4 The City of London Corporation is re-commissioning the Service. The aim is to make the most effective use of resources, with a focus on early intervention and prevention, and includes duties from legislation including the Care Act 2014, Children and Families Act 2014 and the Welfare Reform Act 2012. 1.5 The service will: • Deliver effective outcomes for service users who require information and advice • Maximise the potential for efficiency savings and ensure that the service can continue to demonstrate value for money whilst delivering outstanding outcomes for service users. • Deliver a service that meet the needs of The City Corporation’s diverse communities 1.6 This document describes the service to be provided by the Service Provider.

Although not expected to provide legal advice direct, the service would be expected to enable and facilitate the access to free legal advice and representation, including at Court hearings, welfare benefit appeal tribunals and employment tribunals. 1.8 Bids will be accepted from single organisations who can satisfy the requirements of the specification themselves, or from a Lead Provider who sub-contracts elements of the service to other specialist organisations.
