A record high number of people slept rough in London, with 11,993 individuals identified, including over 1,200 former private renters. This data was collected between April 2023 and March 2024, showing a 19% increase from the previous year.
London Mayor emphasized the need for increased support and funding to combat rising rough sleeping, citing failures in government policies such as 'no fault' evictions and asylum system issues. The urgency to address these issues was highlighted to prevent more individuals from becoming homeless.
