Petition Ensure that there is suitable affordable housing available for all young people
According to Centrepoint research 110,000 young people asked their local authority for help with homelessness last year - this needs to change. We call on the Government to provide local authorities with ringfenced funds to provide all young people in need somewhere suitable and affordable to live.
More details
No young person should be forced to live on the streets or to sofa surf. Young people need a safe and secure environment in which they can thrive and develop. Austerity cuts have removed a lot of that security and has made some areas a lot more deprived. The Government needs to address these issues that they are responsible for.
