Thanks Gráinne Cuffe for covering this important issue, and Siobhan Taylor-Ward (Vauxhall Law Centre) and @spikemullings (HammersmithLawCentre) for your contributions.

I’m so pleased and grateful to see this from Gráinne Cuffe Housing Options is no longer a public service in many parts of England. It is instead a service hidden from or inaccessible to the public. This is NOT the spirit or letter of the Homelessness Reduction Act

Important & much needed reporting from Gráinne Cuffe on how difficult it is for many ppl facing homelessness to access housing options services. Very far away from what the Homelessness Reduction Act set out to deliver & another symptom of our broken 🏠 system which can be fixed

I was so upset to see this. Simon was such a decent and lovely person. He was incredibly humble, despite the fact that he worked tirelessly to help people when they were at their lowest. This is a terrible loss and my thoughts go out to his friends and family.
