I am doing some research into homelessness amongst people who are granted refugee status in the UK. I would like to request the following information under Freedom of Information.
1. The number of people who presented as homeless where the reason for the homeless presentation was recorded as “Required to leave accommodation provided by Home Office as asylum support” in 2023.
Jan–Dec 2023: 59
2. The number of people who presented as homeless where the reason for the homeless presentation was recorded as “Required to leave accommodation provided by Home Office as asylum support” so far in 2024 broken down by month.
January 2024: 15
February 2024: 7
March 2024: 7
April 2024: 7
May 2024: 4
June 2024: 1
July 2024: 1
August 2024: 1
September 2024: 0
3. Does your Council have an estimate of the number of people who will approach you for housing/homeless support between today’s date and the end of 2024 where the reason will be “Required to leave accommodation provided by Home Office as asylum support”.
No but it is predicted to reflect the numbers seen in Q2 of 24/25.
