The key to ending homelessness is more truly affordable homes. So, we need the government to continue their initial positive steps and set out how they will deliver the 90,000 social rent homes per year needed to end homelessness.
We want all options to be considered, including repurposing the 261,000 long-term empty homes.
Meanwhile, councils need urgent funding to cope with the rising numbers of people forced into homelessness. Without it, we might see the homelessness system collapse.
Finally, the actions the UK Government could take in their strategy could help end homelessness across the whole of Great Britain, including Scotland and Wales.
