We would like to know about any young people aged 16-24 who approached you, including those who were part of a household or couple and were not the main applicant, during the financial year 2020-2021 because they were homeless or at risk of homelessness. In addition to this, we are also seeking to know how many young people aged 16-24 you helped through Everyone In during these same periods to get an idea of the full scale of homelessness support provided during the pandemic for young people.

The information we are requesting falls under the Housing Act 1996 which has been amended to include the new duties brought in by the Homelessness Reduction Act 2017.

We have attached a template spreadsheet to this request for you to enter your response.
