Burnham’s Bold Pledge to End Rough Sleeping | Bristol News
Description
New PM Andy Burnham has made ending rough sleeping his top priority, sparking cautious optimism among charities. Having previously succeeded in reducing homelessness in Greater Manchester, he now aims for national change, citing the “Everyone In” pandemic initiative as proof it’s achievable. While charities like Alongside praise the bold pledge—especially given current global challenges—they warn that turning words into action will be tough, given past broken promises. With rough sleeping at a record high across England, the real test lies in execution. The charity sector is ready to support, but the coming months will reveal whether this ambitious goal can become reality.
