In Basingstoke and Deane we are working together to reduce homelessness in the borough.

Throughout the pandemic, local homeless services, in partnership with the council, supported 66 people away from rough sleeping. Since the pandemic we have continued to work collaboratively to ensure those who moved into accommodation are supported to ensure they continue to live independently.

Your help can make a difference right now.
