This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

Providing support for homeless people is primarily the responsibility of local councils rather than the UK Government. You might want to consider contacting your local council about this issue.

Alternatively you could raise your issue with a local councillor, who represents you. You can use this page to find out who your local councillors are, and how to contact them:

You may also want to consider signing this existing petition which calls on the Government to increase the funding it gives to local councils to tackle homelessness https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/163794

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
