London Borough of Waltham Forest awarded a contract to Forest Churches Emergency Night Shelter (FCENS) for the provision of five winter night shelter beds for individuals experiencing or at immediate risk of rough sleeping.

The service provides safe overnight accommodation alongside welfare support, access to basic facilities, and referral pathways into longer-term housing and support services.

The provision forms part of the Council's winter rough sleeping response and creates additional capacity during periods of heightened demand, particularly where other emergency accommodation options are unavailable or unsuitable.

The contract value is £41,752, procured under PA 2023 via a waiver process.
