'Encouraging' - Labour's manifesto makes commitments to tackle homelessness

“Everyone should have a place to call home, and preventing and tackling homelessness has far-reaching benefits for all. In January we launched our manifesto to end homelessness and outlined the steps the next Government should take to achieve this goal.

“It is encouraging to see the Labour Party’s manifesto, published today, acknowledging this and making commitments to tackle homelessness and the housing crisis. We look forward to seeing how our concerns are reflected in the other main party manifestos in the coming week.”
