Open up empty buildings in Aberdeen
Follow the lead of Manchester and open up empty buildings for homeless people this winter. A recent Freedom of Information request by S Kelly shows that there are 400+ empty, habitable council dwellings on your books. Do the right thing here - and let's agree to set up some support services to help these people, let's just not home them and forget about getting them help
Why is this important?
To plead to the Council to open its empty buildings to the homeless in winter. I cannot imagine sleeping rough in driving, biting winds, snow, ice and winter rain. It's inhumane. It's also inexcusable when we have so many empty buildings.
