I’m setting off next week to cycle from London to Edinburgh, riding 500 miles to raise money for @crisis_uk
I can attest to the life-changing work Crisis does every day, so all sponsorship greatly appreciated. It makes a massive difference.

It should not be govt policy to arrest people simply because they do not have a roof over their head. We would urge the Prime Minister @RishiSunak and the Home Secretary @JamesCleverly to listen to their colleagues calls and drop these punitive measures. https://t.co/m2lwy74PlC
Rishi Sunak faces defeat in the commons unless he backs away from criminalising homelessness.
It is a cruel and counterproductive idea. It must not be allowed to pass. I’m hugely grateful to the MPs on all sides that have worked with us to stop it

What an utterly brilliant way to present the 2023 sewage dumping data. Just enter you postcode. 👋👋👋
Deserving of an award me thinks.

This was unacceptable. I’ve seen some brilliant work from Manchester police on homelessness, so hope this is an isolated incident.
People rough sleeping are subject to the very worst of abuse and need protection from the police, not this.
BREAKING: New child mortality data shows 55 children have died in temporary accommodation.
This is the devastating human cost of our housing emergency. It’s people who pay the highest price of our failure to build more truly affordable social housing.

Grim new official homelessness stats out today. Rough sleeping up 27% on last year. The number of households homeless following 'no fault' eviction up, 43% since 2019 when govt first promised abolition. There are now >142k children living in often dangerous TA, up 96% since 2010
