Details
The £310 million Homelessness Prevention Grant combines and increases what was previously the Flexible Homelessness Support Grant and Homelessness Reduction Grant. In 2021-22 we have combined these two funding streams and increased them by £47 million, giving local authorities more control and flexibility in managing homelessness pressures and supporting those who at risk of homelessness.
In our review of the Homelessness Reduction Act we committed to reviewing the new burdens funding associated with the Act. This review has been completed and is reflected in the £310 million allocated for the Homelessness Prevention Grant.
