Coventry City Council awarded a contract to Turnaround West Midlands Community Interest Company for a sex workers support service.

The service supports on-street sex workers in CV1 to CV6 to access stable housing, drug services, drug substitution prescriptions, and early healthcare, enabling them to exit the sex work industry.

It also aims to reduce the number of children born to this cohort and supports pregnant individuals to access termination, engage with social care, or navigate child removal.

The service includes prevention and control of infectious disease outbreaks such as Tuberculosis and Sexually Transmitted Infections, and helps sex workers recognise they are victims of modern slavery, provide police intelligence to identify modern slavery rings, and provide court evidence where relevant.

The provider delivers the same level of support to all sex workers regardless of gender and sexual orientation.

The contract value is £879,958.
