Sleeping rough

Overview

Living on the streets is unsafe. Rough sleepers are at a higher risk of abuse and of dying prematurely. 

We want to:

  • reduce rough sleeping
  • address the harm it brings to individuals and communities in Southwark

We aim to:

  • act fast to help people who are sleeping rough
  • offer them advice and support to move off the streets and into accommodation 

We work with partners to do this.
