What the petition asks
Offer mental health support, temporary housing, drug/substance misuse, employability and education to the homeless to prevent the increasing percentage of humans living on concrete, struggling to stay alive and find happiness, this will decrease the UK’s homelessness issue and benefit our nation.
Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
We understand that you'd like to see more action taken to combat homelessness, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the UK Government or Parliament to do.
After the Homelessness Reduction Act was passed by Parliament last year, the Government introduced a plan of action to reduce homelessness earlier this year - you can find out more about it here:
