🚨 BREAKING: Homelessness in England hits new record level. 320,000 of us are now facing homelessness - up by 8% in the past year. We can’t go on like this. The solution? Build more social homes now.

@FHSRegentsPark @stcypriansnw1 @FCMarylebone Thank you to all the pupils of Francis Holland School for the Harvest Festival donation. The care and creativity put into the boxes is incredible. We can’t thank you enough. The food will last us for quite a few months.

Harvest Festival Collection and Service 🧡🍁 This morning the whole school gathered in @stcypriansnw1 for a wonderful service, celebrating our annual collection which this year is being donated to @NLAHn16 and @FCMarylebone 🫶

Thank you to Mayor of Hackney @carowoodley and Deputy Mayor of London for Environment & Energy @metecoban92 for judging the cake competition at the Oldfield Road street party! Your support helped raise funds for @NLAHn16 and @StokeyCatsnDogs.

@sallyfreestone @carowoodley @metecoban92 @NLAHn16 @StokeyCatsnDogs @anyasizer I loved joining Oldfield Road’s very own Bake Off! The taste, the texture, the presentation! It was great to hear about the charities - I will arrange asap to visit @NLAHn16 Also met some young people who’d raised funds for @RSPCA_official as well as @StokeyCatsnDogs Stars!🤩

📢 We need help! We won’t have access to our kitchen on Monday 29th July so we need donations of sandwiches / crisps or takeaway meals to serve to our guests (80 people). 🍽️ If you can help, please get in touch. Any support greatly appreciated! 💙#Stokenewington #n16 #Hackney

🧵 We are dealing with increasing numbers of out-of-London PRS homeless offers to increasingly distant locations. A short thread on how our advice to homeless families when dealing with these offers has evolved.

We’re horrified to hear the Home Secretary describe sleeping rough as a “lifestyle choice,” while it’s her department’s policies that are pushing people onto the streets🧵 theguardian.com/society/2023/n…

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

@StreetLink_ We tried to use the app this week. We got an email saying "we got your alert" but no alert reference number. How do we chase or communicate with outreach workers without reference number?

StreetLink is dedicated to helping individuals rough sleeping. This includes anyone who is sleeping outside, preparing to bed down, or sleeping somewhere not designed for habitation, such as a car. 👉 Find out more at thestreetlink.org.uk/about #BeTheLink

🚨DRUG ALERT There appears to be a bad hatch of #heroin circulating in the #Camden area again, cut with #fentanyl. We now know of a woman who died due to this near Kings Cross Station 🚨@CGL_Camden advice for anyone who uses drugs can be found here: changegrowlive.org/drugs-contamin…

In all the years of covering rough sleeping, I’ve never seen anything like I saw last week. #homeless ⁦@BBCNews⁩
