What is being bought

Lot 1: Barrow in Furness Lot 2: South Lakeland Lot 3: Eden The Key Service Aim is to support young people in need and reduce inequality, supporting the Council's priority for People as identified in the Council Plan; we will support everyone to start well, live well and age well. We are ambitious for all our children and young people; committed to listening to their aspirations and showing them how much we care. Council plan | Westmorland and Furness Council Service Vision Our ambition for the young people in our service is that: • Young people receive the right help at the right time. • Young people receive a service that is personalised to their needs, from a service offer which is consistent across the county. • Young people who access our services go on to experience a bright and fulfilling future, free from the risk of homelessness. Our ambition for the service is that, from the first point of contact with a young person who is experiencing homelessness/at risk of homelessness, everyone working in this service area sees the potential in that young person and plays their part in shifting that young person from a point of crisis, to give them hope for the future.

This support will enable the young person to move on as a self-sufficient adult, able to manage their own tenancy.\nService Providers will ensure that services are delivered in line with The Authority's strategic priorities, policies and procedures (including amendments, re-enactments and updates), including, but not limited to Westmorland and Furness Council's Looked After Children Strategy, the Joint Protocol for Homeless Young People in Westmorland and Furness, the Children's Improvement Plan, Westmorland and Furness' Promise to Care Leavers, the Council Plan 2023-2028 and the Westmorland and Furness Joint Local Health and Wellbeing Strategy 2024-2034. The Service Provider will be responsible for carrying out robust research, as well as verification and analysis of data to inform their service delivery planning.",
