Homelessness, or the threat of homelessness, continues to be an issue that affect many of our service users. In an area like Newham, where demand is high and accessing housing often comes with barriers, the solutions can sometimes seem complex. The session is intended to help identify these obstacles and how to overcome them. Homelessness can be resolved, but will only be achieved by building stronger partnerships and understanding the landscape in which we operate.
