The Homelessness Prevention Grant will combine what was
previously the Flexible Homelessness Support Grant and the Homelessness
Reduction Grant with funding for these measures to be increased by £47m on
current spending. Funding will be targeted at areas with high numbers of
homelessness, including those living in temporary accommodation. Local
authorities can use the money to offer financial support for people to find a
new home, to work with landlords to prevent evictions or to provide temporary
accommodation, among other preventative measures. Read more on Inside Housing.
