Published requirement description

Herefordshire Council made a commitment in 2020 to resettle at least 125 refugees by the middle of 2025.

The service will deliver a property furnishing and set up function to allow for suitable properties to be used to accommodate Afghan Refugees and Ukrainians across up to 50 properties. Accommodation will consist of a mix of houses and flats of varying sizes and will include a mix of 1, 2, 3 and 4 bedroom properties.

The purpose of the contract is to co-ordinate and deliver the redecoration, carpeting / flooring, furnishing and set up of up to 50 properties.
