Cornwall Council awarded a contract to Homeless Link for an independent review of its Housing First service, which has supported people with histories of entrenched rough sleeping and multiple disadvantage since 2019.

The review assessed service outcomes, tenancy sustainment, unsuccessful tenancies, community impact, operational delivery, and alignment with Housing First principles.

It included analysis of quantitative and qualitative evidence, engagement with key stakeholders, benchmarking against national Housing First practice and fidelity standards, and provided recommendations to inform future commissioning, service development, and strategic decision making.

The contract was awarded under the Procurement Act 2023 via a single supplier exception, with a value of AUD 40,890.
