Homeless and Inclusion Health meeting

The Homeless and Inclusion Health Network meetings are an opportunity for people working within the sector to come together monthly to connect and give service updates on what’s happening around the country.

It is a place to share good practice, challenges, ideas for innovation, discuss the latest policy updates, hear/give presentations etc. and get advice and support from others. Anyone working with people experiencing homelessness, clients in temporary accommodation, asylum seekers, refugees, and the GRTBS (gypsy, roma, traveller, boater, and showman) communities is welcome to join.
