Covid homeless scheme not leading to permanent accommodation, warns charityon August 27, 2021 at 12:38 am

A charity says fewer than one in four people helped by the Everyone In initiative now have permanent homes.

The data – shared with the BBC – showed more than three quarters of those initially accommodated, around 29,000 people, were in emergency or temporary accommodation, had reconnected with friends or family, or were likely to have returned to the streets.
