Andy Burnham has called on local leaders to offer all rough sleepers in England a route off the streets by Christmas, as he pledges another £100m to end street homelessness.
The prime minister has promised he will mount a Covid-style campaign to get everyone off the streets this winter, arguing that rough sleeping has become so common it now “feels like part of the scenery”.
Tackling homelessness is a central policy for Burnham’s government.
We would like to speak to people who have been homeless in the past. What helped you get off the streets and into accommodation for good? Was it a government initiative? Support from charity? Help from friends or family? Or perhaps it was a combination of some or all of these? We would also like to hear about your experience of homelessness and how you look back on that time.
