Over 20% of the people at Crisis have experience of homelessness. But we consult with many more when we plan projects, policies & fundraising activities. We have a network of remunerated 'Experts by Experience' & are recruiting for more. Interested? crisis.org.uk/about-us/lates…

We know we can end homelessness. Just like making the perfect cup of tea, we just need the right ingredients ☕

As the election approaches, we need politicians to step up. Tell party leaders you want them to commit to ending homelessness now: campaigns.crisis.org.uk/page/143629/pe…

Join me for our next Women's Housing Forum and Chartered Institute of Housing webinar where we'll be discussing the impact of No Recourse to Public Funds (NRPF), with @NACCOMnetwork and Hibiscus Initiatives

And a weary sigh from housing lawyers. Everyone not involved in the sector is shocked and startled when they encounter what the homelessness rules actually are, but assume it is a one off bad decision and then nothing changes.

A huge thank you to all the speakers, including Baroness Armstrong and Sir David Lidington for sharing lessons learnt from their time in Government.

And a huge thank you to all of you that asked your MP to attend.

Let’s build a future free from homelessness! #MakeHistory

We keep hitting records in homelessness with every new release. We can't continue. Behind each number is someone without the foundation & safety of a home. All political parties need to address this without fail, with more social housing & specialist support like Housing First

.Office for National Statistics (ONS) has released new statistics today on the impact rising housing costs are having on households across England and Wales. Here are the facts 👇 1/8

Great writing from Georgina Quach on the evidence based solutions to homelessness compared to the archaic approach on criminalisation. Bit depressing we've been having this argument for 200 years - fair to say now is the time for a change in approach! ft.com/content/58dd29…

'I have learnt, that the correct intervention...can help a person facing homelessness rebuild their lives...I have seen it work so many times that I know it to be true.' Read Andy's experiences of homelessness & why the Criminal Justice Bill won't work (£)independent.co.uk/voices/homeles…

Tomorrow is the last day to apply for this brilliant role in Crisis campaigns team to have a real impact on homelessness. Take a look 👇🏽

This is a positive step forward and a pragmatic approach to what is often a thorny issue. Will be great to delve into the detail and particularly on how homelessness is reflected in local housing need and the delivery of social housing in particular to meet this
