£105 Million To Keep Rough Sleepers Safe

Interim housing for thousands of rough sleepers taken off the streets during the pandemic is to be provided, ministers have announced. The additional £105 million will be used to support rough sleepers and those at risk of homelessness into tenancies of their own, including through help with deposits for accommodation, and securing thousands of alternative rooms already available and ready for use, such as student accommodation. The funding takes the total amount provided this year by government to support rough sleepers and those on the brink of becoming homeless to over half a billion pounds.
