This morning I joined Shelter Scotland in City Square Dundee to show support for their campaign, 'Homelessness: Far From Fixed'.
This campaign is calling on the Scottish Government to urgently develop a National Homelessness Strategy to ensure:
#There is a safe and affordable home for everyone; #There is help available for everyone to keep or find a home;
#There is a strong housing safety net to catch people if they do lose their home and
#That no-one should ever have to sleep rough on Scotland’s streets.
On a freezing day like this, the dangers of rough sleeping are especially apparent.
I think, we should be ashamed that, 50 years after the founding of Shelter, homelessness is far from fixed.
