<p>This Government is clear that no one should be without a roof over their head. That is why we have committed to ending rough sleeping by the end of this Parliament and to enforcing the Homelessness Reduction Act. <br> <br>In 2019/20 £368 million was allocated to tackle homelessness and rough sleeping. This funding is comprised of programmes such as:</p><ul><li><strong>The Flexible Homelessness Support Grant </strong>which seeks to help local authorities plan and respond to their local homelessness pressures;</li><li><strong>The Rough Sleeping Initiative</strong> which is making an immediate impact on rough sleeping levels by funding local authorities to provide specialist services to help people off the streets and into secure accommodation;</li><li><strong>The Rapid Rehousing Pathway</strong> which puts in place the structures to ensure we prevent and quickly respond to rough sleeping in the longer term via a package of measures. This includes Somewhere Safe to Stay hubs which provide dry shelter, specialist navigators who act as a single point of contact, and funding to help source properties and improve tenancy sustainment.</li></ul><p>The Government have allocated £437 million to tackle homelessness over 2020/2021. This marks an additional £69 million on what Government provided in 2019/20.</p>
