About

Swindon Borough Council awarded a contract to Step By Step for the provision of Swindon Supported Lodgings, a semi-independent accommodation service where young people live with a host family or individual.

The service provides safe and appropriate accommodation, guidance, and support to prepare young people for independent living, with hosts working alongside other professionals to promote practical, social, and emotional development in line with each young person's Pathway Plan or Support Plan.

The contract, valued at AUD 1,910,000, aims to deliver an effective supported lodgings service that offers stable, nurturing family homes, helps young people feel physically and emotionally secure, and reduces their risk of exploitation as adults.
