More Investment for Rough Sleeping Prevention

Understanding the issues that lead to rough sleeping and being able to address them before people are forced to sleep on our streets allows problems to be caught early and have people put into adequate accommodation
The rough sleeping figure has increased by 141% since 2010 and more needs to be done to ensure this figure does not rise anymore
According to Crisis, effective early interventions reduce the personal and financial cost of homelessness. Cost of rough sleeping for 12 months (£20,128) vs cost of successful intervention (£1,426) (At What Cost, 2015).
Preventing Homelessness early benefits all parties!
