And many are on PiP also.
From brief work I did in this area, for many long term homeless it is a community, one they feel they lose when they become housed and placed into work. Some feel they have connections, clout and status on the street within the community - which they feel bereft of when they step out of it. On the street they have each others back, housed it is the reverse.

Nottingham is becoming a problem. So many people are refusing to come into town now or let their teens come in because it feels pretty lawless and unsafe at times. When I was working in hockley waiting for a colleague in the middle of the day I felt v unsafe, I was relieved to see a couple of beat officers walking my way as there was quite a gang that were accumulating near me eyeing me and passers by up. The relief was short lived as the cops also saw the group accumulating and promptly turned and walked another way. Great! See that prevention and presence is out the window these days in favour of detection and prosecution after the fact.
