We’re standing with @crisis_uk and many others against the UK Governments plans to criminalise homelessness.  

None of us should be punished for being homeless. 

Email your MP now to help stop these cruel and inhumane laws. https://t.co/UbeFabj6ZM

Our #SilentNightmare petition is now closed!

Thank you to everyone who has helped us give a voice to the voiceless and ask for cots to be provided in Temporary Accommodation.
We appreciate your support!

Our next step will be presenting the petition to the Government.

[Shared Health Foundation @Sharedhealthgm]

The team from Shared Health & @justlifeuk will be meeting with @FelicityBuchan this week to discuss the #SilentNightmare campaign and how the gov can support councils to provide cots in TA.

Nearly 5,000 of you have put your name to this campaign so far.

Such incredibly sad news. Please sign the petition for vital and basic furniture.

[Nadia Svirydzenka @svirydzenka]

cannot stess just how important this campaign is! especially now, with record numbers of children in temporary accommodation. this is not the kind of records we should be setting! 'A cot for every baby!' @ProfLakhanpaul @champions_ta @DMUresearch @dmuleicester @TheNewStatsman

[Shared Health Foundation @Sharedhealthgm]

34 homeless children have died in Temporary Accommodation, most of them were babies under the age of 1.

This truly is a Silent Nightmare.

Please sign @TA_APPG petition to ask the government to provide cots in Temporary Accommodation.
