Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU) Contract Type:
Emergency accommodation is used by Cornwall Council to support people who have been made homeless. These people are often in crisis and require furnished emergency accommodation immediately and without delay.
Cornwall Council is seeking to work in partnership with new and existing providers of accommodation in locations throughout Cornwall, so that people in crisis may be accommodated for a short period, in areas close to their networks of support, employment and schools.
Ideally, the emergency accommodation will be close to local amenities and public transport, and we are also seeking accommodation that is suitable for wheelchair users and has good accessibility.
It is important that the emergency accommodation offered is suitable for the people who have been made homeless; typically suitable for:
• Families with children;
• 16 and 17 year olds; or
• Single people.
It is the Council's intention to purchase accommodation in all areas across Cornwall, at agreed rates, through a Dynamic Purchasing System
Market Engagement
Cornwall Council will be hosting three events during October (all events will be the same) to meet with providers of accommodation, to present more information about the service and to receive feedback:

• In West Cornwall - St Johns Hall, Penzance on 22 October at 9.30 am until 1.00 pm;
