Select committee: Women and Equalities Committee

Recommendation 25

1st Report - Black people’s experiences of homelessness Published 15 Jul 2026 Addressed to Government Equalities Office
Recommendation (the committee's words)
As part of its National Plan the government should engage with smaller, Black-led organisations who have the trust of their communities. This will enable the government to understand the issues Black people face across a range of ethnicities and other characteristics, and then work with these groups to design tailored interventions. It should use its convening powers to facilitate greater join up between smaller grassroots organisations and national bodies who can help them to deliver comprehensive support. (Recommendation, Paragraph 117)
