It's really important that everyone has their voice heard this General Election. If you, or someone you know, have no fixed address, you can still register to vote. The government has released new guidelines on this today, which can be found at: https://t.co/JSIFEWXYi8

"Without Your Place's support, I wouldn't be where I am. I struggled being around others which made me feel anxious, but being here has helped me to challenge myself and tackle this. I now feel so much more confident and have made some nice friendships with others living here."

"Just days after the government's own report on the significant 27% increase in rough sleeping, it is deeply disappointing that the #SpringBudget fails to address the UK's homelessness emergency." - @AmandaDubarry, CEO. Read the full response here: https://t.co/Tv5PG1mWci

My @Guardian story: Rough sleeping increases in England for the second year running - and government will fail to meet its manifesto pledge to end rough sleeping before the next general election. https://t.co/mjioaThu4a

NEW: Police in Manchester say an officer’s behaviour was unacceptable and must never be repeated after video emerged of her dragging a rough sleeper across the ground and deliberately “stamping” on his stomach.

@AmandaDubarry, CEO, said “West Ham have long been supporters of our work. And visits such as Ben’s make a huge difference to the people we help. Today has helped them feel part of the community, there were definitely lots of smiles and laughs when Ben was in the building.”

[Your Place @YourPlaceUK]

Maria, a resident of Your Place, said "“Football has helped me get through some tough times in the past, and I used to love playing the game. It was wicked to meet Ben – it was really nice for him to give up his time, and it really lifted all of our spirits.”

[Your Place @YourPlaceUK]

West Ham's Ben Johnson paid Your Place a special visit. He said, “It’s been a really good day, and is something I won’t forget. Homelessness is an issue I feel strongly about, and Your Place are doing brilliant work to help change things." Read more: https://t.co/M99o9qOjjm

Homelessness is not a lifestyle choice, and you cannot end rough sleeping by taking away the only protection people have from the weather, people will die. You can end it by working with the homelessness sector.

[Your Place @YourPlaceUK]

We have joined together with homelessness charities to write to the Home Secretary @SuellaBraverman. Sleeping rough is not a lifestyle choice. We're calling on the government to urgently reverse the decision to ban tents to prevent people from dying on our streets.

I’ve just signed the @Shelter letter to @Keir_Starmer, @RishiSunak, @EdwardJDavey, @AdrianRamsay and @carla_denyer to urge them to commit to rebuilding our housing system. You can too: https://t.co/fj7umjFYsd

"Savings would be found in housing, the health, social, homeless & criminal justice services, unemployment, & children’s lost education"

This is why we need a long-term plan for housing. Building #SocialHousing drives growth & also provides a foundation for communities to thrive

The Kerslake Commission Report says that the government will not meet its target of ending rough sleeping by 2024. Our Impact Report looks at how our teams work with people individually towards being empowered again after homelessness: https://t.co/7pUWAXetbt

It reveals a homelessness sector that is shrinking at a time of heightened demand and increasingly complex needs among people experiencing homelessness.
