Addressing Homelessness: Reducing, Preventing, Ending Conference

Addressing Homelessness: Reducing, Preventing, Ending Conference

Monday 14th August 2017

Open Forum Events are hosting a national conference looking at this rising issue. The event will look to analyse current trends in the prevalence of homelessness and the causes perpetuating them, whilst providing valuable insights into overcoming the challenges of providing homes for all.

Official government figures for England show that there has been a 51% increase in the number of people sleeping rough in the last two years and a rise of 133% since 2010.

The programme will feature plenary addresses from those at the forefront of tackling homelessness covering the evidence, causes and impacts, whilst examples of successful interventions and projects will be showcased as possible long term solutions which delegates' own organisations may benefit from adopting. There will be ample opportunity for all participants and contributors to discuss, question and debate the issues throughout the day.

The event will take place on Thursday 19th September 2017 at The Studio, Manchester.
