Support will be housing-related and service user led, with people empowered to take as much control of their lives and decision-making as possible.
The service will dedicate a proportion of both Supported Accommodation and Floating Support provision to people who have a significant substance misuse issue and who have a history of offending or are at risk of offending.
The service will provide support to a minimum of 60 people at any one time and provide a minimum of 252 support hours per week. Tenderers must be able to provide a minimum of 18 self-contained units for the Supported Accommodation aspect of this contract. All accommodation must be located within Wrexham County Borough.
