Dudley Council is set to support a local charity, which helps to house young people, as part of its multi-million pound project to build new council homes.
With temperatures expected to plummet this weekend, Dudley Council is urging people to be its eyes and ears and report anyone who may be sleeping rough.
People admitted to hospital this winter without a permanent home will be offered special advice and support to help them find accommodation and get discharged quicker from hospital.
As the cold weather bites, local people are urged to report anyone who they think may be sleeping rough to the council’s homeless team, so they can offer help to get them off the streets.
Dudley Council is set to receive some additional funding to support its work in tackling homelessness across the borough as part of a national pilot scheme.
