Sadly little recognition of the impact the service has had in an area where street activity has always been a challenge, we have been told of a 300% reduction in anti social impacts since our programme began

Really disappointed to see no more than a commitment to the real living wage for the staff that provide such essential life giving and life preserving services across Scotland in today's budget
⭐️ In time for the festive (and the Budget) season we’ve launched a campaign urging @scotgov to invest in the workforce & cover the costs of the NI rise Because this winter social care staff need #MoreThanWarmWords ☕️ ➡️ Details: tinyurl.com/44f789mr @r_cackett @neilcgray

We must never forget that homelessness is not inevitable for anyone. Everyone who does experience the tragedy it brings , has their own story, life and future. They just need a safe, happy home, support and compassion
We are delighted to release a new film about a very special safe place of ours that is offering incredible support and hope to people experiencing homelessness in Edinburgh. Find out more, watch the film & learn how you can support - simonscotland.org/2024/10/09… #WorldHomelessDay

An engaging discussion across a range of the most critical challenges the people we support face every day as they try to find better health and more hope
Inspiring discussion with Minister Social Care/Mental Health @MareeToddMSP & Minister Public Health & Women's Health @jenni_minto at our Access Hub in Glasgow today. How to centre relationships within complex systems through a gendered lens, and make it easy #humancentric

a must read for anyone who wants to understand how people experience absolute destitution as a result fo the immigration and migration system enforced by our Westminster Government.
🆕 The latest Fair Way Scotland evaluation from @ISPHERE_HWU and @jrf_uk reveals thousands of people living for years or even decades in Scotland's communities are being forced into destitution by hostile UK immigration policy. Read: buff.ly/4e4gtwV

Another year and another set of rising devastating statistics. I am not sure what more there is to say about each absolute tragedy. I am just so sad and sorry that people we know and support and care for have to experience this loss, time and time again, with no real end in sight
