Everybody In: How to end homelessness in Great Britain

Chief Executive of Crisis Jon Sparkes said: "We welcome the news that the government is planning to allocate £2bn to build new homes in England from 2022. This is a step in the right direction for housing associations who, for the first time, might benefit from long-term commitments of funding, so long as future governments honour this.

Today as the Government releases its social housing green paper, Crisis calls for a 'significant increase' in social housing supply to make a real difference

"For the strategy to work, the government must also set out bold, cross-departmental plans to tackle the root causes of all forms of homelessness, and prevent it from happening in the first place. This must include plans to build significantly more social housing, to foster greater security for renters, to ensure people have access to benefits and other support they need to help them keep their homes."
