The latest figures show that rough sleeping in London has increased by 29% compared to the previous year, with 4,223 people seen sleeping rough between April and June. This includes 1,931 new rough sleepers, marking a significant rise from the previous period.
Efforts are underway to combat this issue, as the Mayor has quadrupled City Hall's rough sleeping budget since 2016 and supported over 16,000 individuals off the streets. Collaboration with the new Government is planned to boost housebuilding and enhance support services to address rough sleeping.
