Access to housing and healthcare is a fundamental human right. By placing the highest priority on providing direct connections to the right housing and supports for every individual, and building a sense of belonging for all, we become people centred and housing centric – meeting people where they are, without judgement, and offering culturally safe, low barrier, inclusive care that is violence and trauma informed.
The Whole of Community System Response is a roadmap to help the most marginalized Londoners move safely inside, become stabilized, supported and connected to the right housing, and to help them stay housed. This response will see 10 to 15 Hubs and 600 highly supportive housing units in place, beginning with up to five Hubs and 100 supportive housing units by the end of 2023.
The Response is supported by the Movement for Change, a public awareness campaign that aims to keep Londoners connected to and updated on the ongoing implementation of the response and ways to get involved. You can read more on the Movement for Change website.
