Homelessness strategy 2018

We asked for views on a new homelessness strategy and related proposals. We wanted to find out whether there was agreement for the key aims of the strategy and actions proposed, and whether the related nine proposals were supported.
 

74 responses to the consultation questionnaire were received as well as other feedback from the Homelessness Reference Group (a forum of statutory and voluntary sector organisations that are involved with homelessness services) and Action Homeless’s Client Conference.

There was agreement with the strategy’s key aim. However there some concerns about how these would be delivered. The proposals made were also broadly supported, again the feedback received mainly related to how these the might be implemented.
 

The consultation feedback was presented to Housing Scrutiny Commission on 15 January 2018. We will consider the feedback in detail before publishing the new homelessness strategy for Leicester.
