Closed petition Open premises to homeless people when the temperature falls.

Closed on

change the law, to require anyone who is responsible for a community centre or a sports hall to open their premises to homeless people when the temperature falls below a certain level.

Just read a news story about a guy freezing to death on the coldest night of the year. It reached -9'c here. Its a simply request, which would help in cold weather, not a quick fix, but a start!
