I've been deeply concerned at the lack of government support for rough sleepers. Until today the government guidelines have only covered hostels and day centres and haven't included a financial package. I've just had an email to say the government has announced emergency support of £3.2 million for councils to provide temporary emergency accommodation to help rough sleepers who need to self-isolate during the coronavirus emergency.
It's been very late in coming, but I'm delighted that this action has been taken.
