Shortly after the start of lockdown and the opening up of hotels and hostels to accommodate rough sleepers and those in shelters the Bristol Homeless Forum has been trying to keep up to date with a weekly bulletin.
This weeks bulletin can be accessed by clicking the picture below which is intended to illustrate the theme running through this week.
A main theme of this week is the Next Steps programme for rough sleepers and the longer term impact of proposed changes to the planning system.
All past bulletins can be accessed from the Past Bulletins Page

Want to join the forum?
Bristol Homeless Forum is open to any individual or organisation working with the issues of people who are homeless in Bristol. While there is much attention to those who are currently street homeless or rough sleeping we recognise that this is only a small, visible part of a much wider issue which affects many more people.
