“Housing is a Domestic Abuse Response.”
Huge congratulations to @IslingtonBC - now one of the first councils in the UK to achieve DAHA + Whole Housing Approach Accreditation. dahalliance.org.uk/media-hub…
Dr John Woolf retweeted
A major step forward for safety, dignity & survivor-led practice.

Cllr @drjohnwoolf message is powerful:
“We listened to survivors - the real experts.”
With DA Champions, housing teams & VAWG partners, Islington is proving that safe housing is a human right and a lifeline for survivors.

Lovely to catch up with @streetskitchen at the Solidarity Pop-Up yesterday at Highbury Corner.
The council is committed to working with partners to bring support & services to those who need them.

A huge thank you to everyone who helped make our first Solidarity Pop-Up yesterday in #Islington such a success!
We're committed to bringing support & services directly to wherever they are needed most.

Brilliant news.
There are now nine @IslingtonBC 100% council home schemes across Islington.
This is what a Labour Council working a Labour Mayor can do!
Well done @drjohnwoolf @tomcopley and the whole team.

We urgently need your support!
We have stood on the frontline of London's homelessness crisis, feeding thousands and providing essential support every week for almost 13 years...
The need is greater and our struggle is more desperate than ever before

Another big thank you to @drjohnwoolf for a hugely insightful talk on the progressive and ambitious work @IslingtonBC are doing in Housing. Strategy, new building, purchasing and management - a vital part of borough life explained so well!

We gathered at @IslingtonBC Town Hall yesterday to remember all those we've lost locally in the last year while experiencing homelessness.
We shared memories, hugs, and comfort 💔
How many more will we lose?
This can't go on.
We're losing too many friends needlessly...

Autumn has well and truly begun, and my diary’s filling up with borough police ward panels, youth debates, workshops and forums.
I’m keen to hear from residents on how we can make Islington safer together. Call it Angelo on Tour - listening, learning, and taking action. 🍂👂
Dr John Woolf retweeted
Thanks for your support, @debs_wb. We are proud of our Borough of Sanctuary work here in @IslingtonBC which includes bringing members of new and existing communities together to foster community cohesion.
I met with @sheilachapman01 & @Angelo__Weekes at @IslingtonBC re: this appalling attack & protests. Their work to support asylum seekers & their efforts to help residents from all walks of life to feel welcomed and connected exemplifies what it means to be a borough of sanctuary

The placement of Islamophobic stickers in Finsbury Park are appalling.
We’re working with police to investigate and hold those responsible to account. If you have any information, contact the police or @IslingtonBC community safety team.

Great to be out with officers and councillors discussing housing on the Marquess @IslingtonLabour
