Homelessness: Homeless now or rough sleeping

Rough sleeping

If you are rough sleeping or you know somebody who is rough sleeping, then contact our team so that we can offer advice and support about your current circumstances. We can also assist you with access to support networks.

You can work with our Outreach Team, who are there to support those that are sleeping rough. They work by speaking to rough sleepers and building a good relationship with them, to support them to get off the streets and to somewhere safe. They can advocate on your behalf to ensure you receive support from other departments and organisations.

If you see somebody who is rough sleeping and you want to help them, you can let us know through Streetlink, who will tell us your concerns so we can go and support them.
