Have they tried North London Action for Homelessness in Stoke Newington?
They run a day centre and can refer through to other services. We do have hostels in the Borough, but don't really have any emergency provision.
You can find a full list of homelessness services in London here: http://www.homelesslondon.org/
''It seems that the way forward would be to Convert a property into a short stay hostel offering support services aiding the homeless back into main stream life.'' Hi Esat. You've certainly nailed the problem of homelessness there. There are too many empty properties that folk like your friend could live in. But why 'short term' ?
I volunteer in a shelter in Islington that sounds quite similar to what you are proposing - if you can get something going I would be happy to help out. I imagine the people who run the winter shelter at Holy Innocents in Crouch End might be interested in being involved in something like this as well as I know they were trying to expand their activities.
You are right that everywhere I know of is pretty much full. I'm really worried about what is going to happen to some people with the new benefits and the current difficulty in getting jobs.
Esat - You won't do your cause any good by insulting your target audience - I'm beginning to question your motives.
I'm sorry esat please forgive me. Thank you for showing me the error of my ignorant ways. Your wise guidance has helped me see what a shallow individual i have been. I only wish i could strive to be a more whole person like you. I admire you.
Let's be charitable and say lots of people are probably on holiday ;-)
I'm sure there's lots of people who'd be interested in helping but you probably need to have a more concrete plan before people will commit themselves.
The recent thread about Banksy was viewed 1000 times, the thread about the dog being put down was viewed 1680 times, this thread was viewed 220 times. It does make one wonder what the priorities in life are of the people who read HOL.Property prices perhaps.
