I've written about how the Criminal Justice Bill will criminalise rough sleeping once again - and why these measures are as much of a worry as taking tents away from people sleeping rough. Instead of punitive approaches, there are plenty of solutions to support people 👇🏽
No one should be punished for being homeless.
But the Government’s Criminal Justice Bill contains new laws that could criminalise rough sleeping.
We explain why these plans are a danger to people sleeping on the streets.

It's Conservative party conference this weekend in Manchester so we asked people in Manchester their thoughts on homelessness & what Government should do🤔watch what they told us below👇🏾
(& for anyone going to conference DM me if you'd like to catch up & discuss homelessness!)
We asked people what message they had for the party leaders on homelessness, ahead of the Conservative and Labour party conferences in Manchester and Liverpool. Here's what people in Manchester had to say to @RishiSunak #MakeHistory.
Come and help us with producing a guide to help employers play their role in ending homelessness - details below
