In 2023, homelessness continued to rise at an alarming rate. Nearly 136,000 young people turned to local authorities for help, and rough sleeping also increased by 27 percent across England.

In response, we implemented organisational changes to secure our long-term sustainability and expanded key services, including new accommodation in Cheshire, Lambeth, and Salford.
