Great to be at @homelesslink.bsky.social rough sleeping conference yesterday. Talking about the need for a asylum move-on process which prevents, rather than causes, destitution, and hearing about the brilliant work @mustardtreemcr.bsky.social are doing in Manchester.
Huge amount of expertise in the room to turn the tide on record levels of rough sleeping as our conference begins today
Thanks to everyone for joining: look forward to learning from each other today
Bayo Alaba, MP for Southend East and Rochford, pays tribute to HARP Homelessness Charity, who are based in his constituency
From Wednesday's Parliament debate on children rough sleeping. Shameful that in 2026, this needs to be discussed.
But heartening to hear MPs praise charities supporting all people facing the danger of rough sleeping. Thanks @bayoalaba.bsky.social & all others

Such an important campaign for our members: pleased to join @praxisprojects.bsky.social at Parliament today to highlight how these proposed immigration reforms risk driving up migrant homelessness and rough sleeping.
A huge thanks to the 100+ organisations working to end homelessness who joined us at Parliament yesterday.
Energising to see our members push politicians for meaningful change, and to hear politicians acknowledge the vital role of the voluntary sector in ending homelessness

Homelessness is designed into the asylum system. This must change: with @homelesslink.bsky.social, we are campaigning for a system which ends homelessness for all. www.itv.com/news/2026-02...
NEWS: 2025 Rough Sleeping Snapshot figures released today are the highest on record.
These are atrocious figures. And behind those figures are thousands of lives severely damaged by the trauma and dangers of rough sleeping.

On 11th March, we’re turning up to Parliament in the Mass Lobby for Migrant Rights.
Along with migrant and refugee groups, unions, and faith groups we’re going to call on as many MPs as possible to oppose the Government’s earned settlement plans.

More evidence that a truly effective cross-government approach to homelessness needs to include more action from the Home Office.
With @naccomnetwork.bsky.social we're campaigning for an asylum system that prevents - rather than causes - homelessness

Government's National Plan to End Homelessness released this morning.
Positive to see some #BreakingTheCycle campaign asks included, such as cross-departmental accountability & prevention focus.
But questions remain on funding & implementation.
More to come!

Our immediate reaction to yesterday's Budget 👇
Welcome progress on some of our long-term campaign asks, but some major missed opportunities.
Our attention now turns to the Homelessness Strategy. And the Chancellor's needs to as well - details below

Opportunity needs to be taken to involve health and social care services in addressing needs of people experiencing homelessness

"Unfreezing the allowance would undoubtedly make rents more affordable and have a significant impact on the number of people facing homelessness."
Our Head of Policy Sophie Boobis quoted on speculation LHA rates may be unfrozen in next week's Budget

Great to join this powerful @crisis-uk.bsky.social message to the Chancellor yesterday.
Our members know low Local Housing Allowance rates are driving the record levels of homelessness we are seeing right now. Next week's budget is a chance to start turning the tide.
Homeless Link is joining YMCA England & Wales, @stmungos.bsky.social , @crisis-uk.bsky.social, BHT Sussex, @centrepointuk.bsky.social & New Horizon Youth Centre to ask the Chancellor to #MakeWorkPay for people in supported housing.
See our joint briefing: centrepoint.org.uk/research-rep...
Such an important topic. Thanks very much for sharing your team's insight and joining today @pathwayuk.bsky.social
