Petition Demand that empty offices in London are used for emergency shelter for the homeless

More details

Every day as I walk through London, I see hundreds of empty buildings that have been disused for months. I also see many homeless people sleeping rough in all weathers who would love the opportunity of just one night in a safe and warm building.

I know hundreds of people who would volunteer to operate this project but first we need the government to back this plan of utilizing empty space in the capital.

In 2012, there is NO excuse for rough sleeping in a City like London. It is barbaric, dangerous and unjust.

Please sign this petition and help this neglected minority.

Thank you.
