CAMPAIGN WIN - Budget includes £20 million for Help To Rent

Tom Say, Former Senior Campaigns Officer

We did it! Together with our supporters, the National Landlords Association and the Residential Landlords Association, we convinced the Chancellor to help homeless people rent.

The Autumn 2017 Budget included £20 million for Help To Rent projects to support homeless people, vulnerable tenants and their landlords.

There was also £28 million to pilot a new approach solving rough sleeping known as Housing First and confirmation of their manifesto commitment to launch a Homelessness Reduction Taskforce.

With homelessness on the rise and the cold winter months closing in, the government must now turn these words into action - and we'll need your help to make sure they do. Have you signed up for Everybody In? 

In the meantime, please do share the good news on Facebook and Twitter.
