Crisis has announced the first beneficiaries of a
£150,000 fund intended to support projects working to help people who are – or
at risk of becoming – homeless. Five UK housing projects have been chosen to
benefit from the Help-to-Rent fund, which has been commissioned by Crisis. The
funding will help the projects to continue their work to help single homeless
people to find long-term solutions to their homelessness, the charity said. The
winners were announced to delegates attending Crisis’, ‘The Private Rented
Sector – A Home For All?’ conference. Funded by the Oak Foundation,
the conference explored challenges in the sector including access,
affordability, standards and security, but also where practice can only go so
far and where policy needs to change. Read more on the Crisis website.
