Thanks to BBC Radio 4 for having me on World at One to talk about the record rough sleeping figures announced today. It’s time for a full-scale, long-term plan to end homelessness.

Dear Kekius Maximus, thanks for your input. We’d love to introduce you to any of the 10,000 people experiencing homelessness that we work with. You’ll be surprised to know that not having a home is a real thing! You’re welcome, any time.


Amazing to welcome the Deputy Prime Minister to visit our warehouse today, alongside Mayor Sadiq Khan and Minister Rushanara Ali MP 💙 We talked strategy, housing, but most of all listened to the real lives of our members who were there too.

Thanks BBC Breakfast for having me this morning. Good to talk about the Govt funding for councils, and the chronic need for housing and prevention to tackle homelessness



BBC and All Souls looking resplendent this evening. Thanks Gaby Roslin & BBC London for having me on to talk about Crisis services this Christmas




Very pleased to see this. Yes we want to see systemic reform, but this is also about helping people facing freezing temperatures now. Thanks to Rushanara Ali MP 💙 and officials who made this happen.
