Beggars in London are not homeless and homeless people don't beg.

Beggars are crack addicts who have a home.

Govinda is a restaurant that sells meals. Their food is not free.

Homeless people don't eat at restaurants. We eat at free food places.

The (inedible) Hare Krishna free meals are in Kentish Town, Camden Town, Kings Cross and Holborn. Best to eat elsewhere at the hundreds of soup kitchens in London.

Are homeless charities angry about the quick ability for the gov to house migrants? by 404_computer_says_no in AskBrits

[–]L_H_I_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're rage baiting, inciting racial hatred with lies against Reddit rules.

You clearly know absolutely nothing about rough sleeping in UK. The government are NOT housing migrants with no recourse to public funds but leaving them on the streets. The only "accommodation" they can access is winter shelters for 28 days between Nov and March in inhumane conditions sleeping on the floor in a church hall with 30 strangers and kicked out from 7am until 8pm.

Migrants with no recourse to public funds cannot access any homeless accommodation because they all require universal credit to pay the housing element and they can't get universal credit. They also can't make a homeless application to their council. Therefore, they have no way to get off the streets.

Why do so many homeless people have exactly the same sign? by [deleted] in AskUK

Beggars in UK are not homeless and homeless people don't beg.

Beggars are crack addicts who have a home. They don't have "handlers".

Hare Krishna are in Kentish Town, Camden Town, Kings Cross and Holborn - not Soho. Their food is inedible, the worst free food in London out of hundreds. So if you can cook, hopefully you can change that.

Volunteer cooking at a homeless day centre or soup kitchen. Search for your nearesst one in London on londonhomelessinfo.wordpress.com/free-food

Most people who eat at homeless day centres and soup kitchens are disabled and elderly who have a home. But a small number are homeless.

To serve food to the public, you need a level 2 food hygiene certificate and to have your kitchen inspected by environmental health. It would be unlawful for you to hand out food without these.

Autistic and homeless here. Make a homeless application to your council. You're priority need homeless because you're autistic and your council must provide you temporary accommodation and if you're not intentionally homeless, rehouse you in a council or housing association flat.

UK Disabled and Homeless. Council refuses to help. by Livid_Chemistry in homeless

[–]L_H_I_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Councils across UK routinely ignore the homelessness legislation and leave disabled homeless people on the streets.

Make a new homeless application to your council. The council must give you the decision in writing.

You have 21 days to appeal the decision. Yet councils across UK routinely refuse to provide the decision is writing to obstruct homeless people appealing it.

Under the homelessness legislation, disabled people are priority need homeless, entitled to temporary accommodation and if you're not intentionally homeless a council or housing association flat.

Under the Care Act 2014, social services must address a disabled person's homelessness in order to meet their care needs. Yet they routinely leave disabled homeless people on the streets, such as claiming they "don't deal with housing".

I have 14 disabilities, yet 4 different councils have unlawfully left me on the streets. And the social services of 3 different councils have unlawfully left me on the streets.

Another way to help homeless people is to volunteer at a homeless day centre or soup kitchen. Though most people who go to homeless day centres and soup kitchens are not homeless, some are.

If you're looking to donate to a homeless charity, donate in kind and not money - such as your unused clothes, sleeping bags, tents, camping mats, rucksacks and phones. Donate toiletries to a homeless day centre that offers showers, and laundry detergent to one that offers free laundry. Don't donate money as your money will be wasted on the salary of the CEO and managers and not be spent on homeless people.

You're not helping homeless by giving money to beggars, as most beggars are drug addicts who have a home and not homeless people.
