The Council also has duty to secure or provide accommodation for 16- and 17-year-old children who are homeless or in need of accommodation as outlined in both the Children's Act 1989 and the Homelessness Act 2002. Through excellent support to our young people, the service will contribute to a range of both national and local strategic objectives aimed at supporting young people in the prevention of homelessness and to remain independent, giving them the 'Best Start in Life'. The Contract will be a block contract for support costs only. The service plays a significant role in offering a housing related support provision in the borough and forms a key part in our offer to both young people in care and care leavers including single homeless 16- and 17-year-olds in preventing homelessness as outlined in our joint working protocol: Meeting the needs of Homeless 16/17-year-olds.
