More homeless people face fines in 2017
The Tory government has done little to increase the number of affordable homes across the United Kingdom. It also created the unjust bedroom tax which has resulted in hardship for many of the poorest people in the country.

Now unelected PM Theresa May's government plans to remove housing benefit eligibility for 18-21 year olds. If you are young and down on your luck you could easily end up homeless.

This woman has been contacted by one of a group of people
organising a National Demonstration against the removal of Housing Benefit for 18-21 year olds under the banner #HouseTheFuture in Bradford Centenary Square on April 8 at Midday.

#HouseTheFuture

"Councillor Richard Dunbar @rdunbar83 is leading the group and is fresh from organising over 100 events for LGBT History Month. He has a strong record of getting things done and has chosen this issue because it is so pertinent to Bradford due to us been the youngest city in the UK.

Further details about the cuts in question are within the following brief http://www.crisis.org.uk/data/files/publications/Housing%20costs%2018-21%20removal%20FINAL.pdf

It is important to us that we make this a national event because all too often we find the national demonstrations taking place in London, beyond the reach of many teenagers and young people in the North.

Please can you support us in whatever way you can:

  • you could tweet with the hashtag #HouseTheFuture
  • you can share the petition running alongside this event with your twitter following and friends and family
  • you can advertise the time and date of the demo using this local news item
  • you may wish to get in touch if you were able to offer assistance in building momentum behind the event in the run up to 8 April
  • we have an extensive press release that I can send to you by request
  • you may wish to speak at the event or know of an expert that does, by all means get in touch and we will do our best to accommodate you

Thank you for your time in reading this and any help that you can offer will be gratefully accepted."

Make a note of the date and help in any way that you can.
