Homelessness and rough sleeping strategy

Foreword

Welcome to our fifth homelessness strategy, which sets out how we, along with our partners intend to meet its priorities and future actions for preventing and tackling homelessness over the next five years. It aligns with our corporate plan and all of its corporate objectives.

Our new strategy aims to continue the work of preventing people from becoming homelessness and supporting those who are faced with homelessness issues; we have recognised the increasing issue of rough sleeping and have identified actions to reduce it.

I am very pleased to endorse this strategy, knowing that the delivery of its aims will enable us to deliver good services which will impact positively on many people's lives.

I would like to extend my thanks to all our partners who have contributed to this strategy.
