Aberdeenshire Council requires the provision of two distinct Outreach Housing Support Services to support Young Persons and Adults.
-The Young Persons Service for people aged 16-20, and care leavers up to and including age 26 where a housing support need has been identified by housing options or social work services who retain the statutory duty to support care leavers up to and including age 26.
-The Adults Outreach Housing Support Service for people aged 21 and over.
The services are required to be person led and outcomes focused, delivering on the themes set out in the Aberdeenshire Council Local Housing Strategy (LHS), which sets out the strategic vision and priorities for the future delivery of housing and housing related services Aberdeenshire, and the Local Outcome Improvement Plan (LOIP). The LOIP is a living document and will be updated as the needs of Aberdeenshire change. This service will be reviewed to reflect these changes on an annual basis.
The services will also need to further develop in relation to The Housing (Scotland) Bill 2025. This introduces several significant changes that directly impact the support duty of Local authorities, particularly in relation to homelessness prevention and tenant protections. The Council will have additional duties around earlier intervention and intentionality changes. There will also be a new requirement for relevant bodies (e.g. Health Services, Social Work, Housing associations) to share information and coordinate with Local Authorities to prevent homelessness.
The services will be expected to collaborate with Aberdeenshire Council statutory partners and others operating within the homelessness sector in Aberdeenshire to deliver our strategic objective to prevent and reduce homelessness.
This Services will be required to be registered with Care Inspectorate as a Housing Support Service.
Please note that this is not a call for competition. Full details of the requirement will be published as part of the tender documents on PCS-T, subject to Committee approval, in February/March 2026. Any questions should be emailed to Marie Moore at …@aberdeenshire.gov.uk
