The Cost
How much does supported housing cost?
The review estimates the annualised cost of the supported housing sector that is covered
by Housing Benefit across Great Britain at the end of 2015 at £4.12bn, approximately 17 per cent of total Housing Benefit spend. Across the country, average estimated Housing Benefit awards for those in specified accommodation, a sub-set of the total supported housing sector, are consistently lower for older people and higher for those of working age. The overall average weekly Housing Benefit award for older claimants in specified accommodation is estimated to be £137 per week compared to £173 per week for working-age claimants in specified accommodation.

The Act
The Public Services (Social Value) Act
The Public Services (Social Value) Act came into force on 31 January 2013. It requires people who commission public services to think about how they can also secure wider social, economic and environmental benefits.
Before they start the procurement process, commissioners should think about whether the services they are going to buy, or the way they are going to buy them, could secure these benefits for their area or stakeholders.
The Act is a tool to help commissioners get more value for money out of procurement. It also encourages commissioners to talk to their local provider market or community to design better services, often finding new and innovative solutions to difficult problems.
