Share your views on how we should tackle homelessness and rough sleeping in Reading

At least every five years all local authorities have a duty to review homelessness in their area and publish a strategy that outlines how it intends to tackle and prevent homelessness.

We have proposed some priorities for our Homelessness and Rough Sleeping Strategy 2025-30 and we would like your views.

Our proposed priorities are:

Priority 1: Intervene early to prevent homelessness and rough sleeping.

Priority 2: Break the cycle of homelessness and rough sleeping.

Priority 3: Increase access to decent, suitable and sustainable accommodation.

Closing date is 10 August 2025.

Please contact Homelessness.StrategyConsultation@reading.gov.uk if you have any questions.

Responses will be reviewed and we expect to provide feedback during September 2025.

Thank you for contributing. Your input will shape how we tackle homelessness and rough sleeping in Reading.
