There are still “far too many” homeless people on the
streets unable to follow government guidance on coronavirus, charities have
warned. The government said last month it wanted to see all rough sleepers

put up in hotels but it is estimated there are still about 900 on streets or in
shared facilities. According to the most recent government figures there were
4,266 rough sleepers in England in 2019, although BBC research has suggested
the real figure could be more than five times higher. Read more on the BBC
website.
