Charities have written to party leaders calling for them
to review the help given to single homeless people. The letter, signed by the
chief executives of five homelessness charities and umbrella group Homeless

single homeless people often receive insufficient support. Under current laws,
single homeless people are only entitled to support if they are judged to be in
priority need. This, say the charities is leading to homeless people being
turned away by councils without receiving support. Read more on Inside Housing.
