Over this community of practice series we have looked at some of the challenges of supporting people who are rough sleeping or experiencing homelessness in a rural setting, including:
- covering large often underserved geographical areas
- stigma in small rural communities
- hidden homelessness
- domestic violence
- the role of housing associations in rural areas, including supporting young people
- Housing First in rural settings
- frontline innovation for prevention and reducing TA use/cost
- increasing access to PRS accommodation through landlord liaison
- the importance of leadership for mindset shift
This final session of the current series will be a reflective space, to recap what we have covered over the series, find out what participants current pressing issues are, and explore what elements of frontline practice it would be important and helpful to cover in future sessions.
