Homelessness and rough sleeping strategy

The Homelessness and Rough Sleeping Strategy document 2019 to 2024 is now available

Introduction

The Homelessness Act 2002 Section 1(1) requires all Local Authorities to undertake a review of homelessness in their area and publish a Homelessness Strategy based upon the findings of the review every 5 years. North Norfolk District Council has undertaken reviews in 2003, 2008 and 2014 and 2019.

The strategy covers homelessness, homelessness prevention, and rough sleeping and seeks to deliver an enhanced housing options service, responds and relates to the Acts of Parliament and statutory guidance that set out the Governments intentions for protecting homeless people, preventing homelessness and ending rough sleeping. 

Both the review and the development of the strategy were undertaken in consultation with key partners and stakeholders operating within the district.
