Thank you @ReddenCourt for allowing me to come and speak to your amazing staff about homelessness. The work you are doing around this topic should be acknowledged and amplified. I feel lucky to be part of this inspirational journey to support your homeless students. 🙏

Over the last year, since starting the Homelessness Project in Havering, supporting schools and my SEND colleague with homelessness, I hear stories about this all the time. It's not okay and things needs to change. #homelessness #notokay
People with disabilities are living in temporary accommodation without working lifts, leaving them trapped in their rooms. The next government must address our acute accessible housing shortage #GeneralElection

The bill pertains to "nuisance begging" and "nuisance rough sleep". This language will only push people experiencing homelessness further into the margins of society.

"No, you have no choice. You are basically presented with a place, and you are told to go there. You can’t see it before you accept it. I mean I –this is a real problem in my case particularly. I wasn’t allowed to read the tenancy agreement before I signed it."

Lack of control for our homeless families is a real problem. It significantly impacts parent's well-being and drains any autonomy they once had. See some powerful quotes from Groundwell's much needed research https://t.co/9YpOgDsINH

Well done @CathLowther. It is so important we spread the word about the detrimental effects of homelessness on young people. The life long-lasting impact of a child experiencing homelessness in the first 5 years of life is real and needs to be discussed more!
Here at the BBC to record an interview about the devastating effects of temporary accommodation on the lives of babies, children and young people for @BBCfileon4
