Do not restrict charities from providing tents for homeless people

Petition Details

It has been reported that the Government is considering restricting charities from providing tents for homeless people. This cannot be allowed to happen.

Additional Information

Homelessness can be devastating, dangerous and isolating.

Many of the problems stem from a severe shortage of affordable housing and a lack of appropriate support services & the cost of living crisis. Rough sleeping is up 26% on last year (Kerslake Commission, 2023). If this restriction was to happen, it could leave vulnerable people to face the harsh weather conditions without any shelter whatsoever. Please support this petition so that we can protect the most vulnerable in our society.
