According to Hopian (formerly Rotherham Rise), the current contract consists of 18 units of supported, safe accommodation in Rotherham, including a refuge for women and children.
Recommissioning the service for four years, with the option to extend for a further two years, would ensure continuous service provision and stability for those who were currently accessing it, the charity said.
The charity said 37 people had accessed and left the service during 2023/24, and between 16 and 29 children per quarter were also supported.
In 2023/2024, 69% of people who left the service were able to obtain their own settled accommodation, with 51% of these individuals finding housing within Rotherham.
