A Talk by Bridget Young , Ollie Hilbery , Jane Cook and Meghan Roach

About this Talk

In this closing plenary our panel will discuss the diverse experiences and needs of those who find themselves sleeping rough and how we move beyond approaches to rough sleeping that focus exclusively on the provision of a place to stay.

Panelists hold expertise in the areas of health, non-UK nationals, youth and multiple disadvantage, and how these intersect with homelessness
