We’ll be speaking to Jo Prestidge from Homeless Link and Georgia Nevitt from St Mungo’s about their work on the pioneering Housing First model - and whether it could be the key to cracking the homelessness crisis.</strong></p><p><br></p><p><em>Coordinated by Revolving Doors, the NECG is the lived experience group for people in the Changing Futures programme, a joint-funded initiative of the National Lottery Community Fund and the Ministry for Housing, Communities and Local Government.
