Homeless people are to benefit from a new £55 million
fund to upgrade existing accommodation and provide new housing. The fund will
be used over the next two years - with £25 million available for accommodation
outside London and £30 million in London. The money will be used for two types
of projects:
- The Homeless Change project will provide upgraded hostel accommodation to improve physical and mental health outcomes for rough sleepers and to help reduce A&E attendances
- The Platform for Life project will create new low-rent shared accommodation for young people who want to work, but are struggling to hold down a job or attend college because of a lack of stable housing
