In plain English

Camden Council, jointly with Islington Council, plans to contract a Navigator Service for people who have been rough sleeping for long periods and have complex needs. The contract is estimated at about £1.95 million over five years, starting around April 2027, and replaces the current grant-funded arrangement.

What the buyer wants

• Provide intensive, trauma and gender informed support to people rough sleeping long-term with high needs across Camden and Islington • Reach people that Camden's primary outreach team cannot, and support clients who move across the two borough boundaries • Help reduce rough sleeping and contribute to the national 'long-term rough sleeping' outcome measure that Camden will be performance managed against

Requirements

What could rule a small business out (our reading of the notice, written with AI): The notice does not list specific qualifications or certifications, but the high value, five-year term, cross-borough delivery and need for proven expertise in long-term rough sleeping and trauma informed support would likely rule out small businesses without an established track record of delivering similar complex services at this scale.
