SOL - Youth Homelessness Accommodation 2026

Descriptions

Solihull Council has reviewed the services it provides to homeless young people 16-24 and is using the findings from this review to design a new service to be implemented from April 2026. As a result, the Council may need to procure specialist services in the following areas: Lot 1: Solihull Youth Hub (SYH) will deliver housing related advice and housing options support and homelessness prevention/relief services to young people aged 16–24. SYH will provide the single point of access for all young people without dependents who are homeless or at risk of homelessness in Solihull. The total value of Lot 1 is estimated to be £1.7m based on a 5-year contract. Lot 2: Solihull Youth Accommodation Pathway. The total value of Lot 2 is estimated to be £2.7m based on a 5-year contract. There are distinct links between lots 1 and 2 and the providers of both lots will be expected to work closely together to ensure a seamless transition from the youth hub to the youth pathway to ensure that young people receive the most appropriate support.
