Details
£315.8 million will be made available to local authorities in
2022 to 2023 through the Homelessness Prevention Grant, to
support them to deliver services to prevent and tackle
homelessness.
This maintains the significant investment of £310 million
provided through the Homelessness Prevention Grant in 2021 to
2022. It includes an additional £5.8 million to cover the cost of
new burdens associated with the expansion of priority need to
those forced into homelessness by domestic abuse, following the
landmark Domestic Abuse Act 2021.
In December 2022, we announced a £50 million top-up to the
Homelessness Prevention Grant that will be made available to
local authorities in 2022-23. This additional funding will
support local authorities to help prevent vulnerable households
from becoming homeless and to manage local homelessness
pressures.
