Last night we had a farewell meal for our outgoing Director, Mike Taylor. It was a wonderful opportunity to bring together past and present trustees with the management team; giving thanks to Mike for his 19 years of service. Fantastic food at veggieperrin.co.uk

Becky from Path talks to the BBC about the housing crisis in Plymouth. It really is the worst times we've seen and we've worked at Path for a long time... bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

After thirteen years of Tory rule, an unprecedented number of people are sleeping in tents. The Tory response is to ban tents.

Crisis
Crisis@crisis_uk·
Sleeping on the streets is NOT a lifestyle choice. We don’t have nearly enough affordable homes, rents are soaring and this is leaving people destitute and forced to sleep rough. This is a consequence of poverty. And poverty in this country has been exacerbated by policy choices
Suella Braverman@SuellaBraverman

The British people are compassionate. We will always support those who are genuinely homeless. But we cannot allow our streets to be taken over by rows of tents occupied by people, many of them from abroad, living on the streets as a lifestyle choice. 1/4

We could get angry at Suella’s latest piece of performative, pandering cruelty or… instead: let’s promote the excellent work done by @Shelter, @centrepointuk, @PassageCharity and other fine charities actually trying to help homeless people, especially now, as winter approaches.

We are glad to work with many landlords in #Plymouth and have various ways we can collaborate, from nominating and supporting tenants, to advising about renting, to leasing properties. And we're keen to work with more. Contact details below.

We've had two colleagues leave this week, lovely people who we'll miss but are so glad to have had as part of our team over the past few years. With the #HousingCrisis, this is a hard time to work in homelessness, making the dedication and kindness of colleagues even more vital.

Excellent video starring my colleague clearly explaining the issues thousands of people face unable to find an affordable private rented home and what the government must do. In most areas no rentals within local housing allowance rate #socialsecurity #housing #homelessness
Shelter@Shelter

It really shouldn't be this hard for private renters in receipt of housing benefit to find somewhere to live. #UnfreezeHousingBenefit

Working people are become the working homeless. Our investigation has found families with children living in tents and hotels. This was our lead story on News at Ten with @tombradby. We dedicated the first 10 minutes of the show to the housing crisis
