Without long-term solutions to London’s housing crisis, people will be forced out of the capital.
For families, this is already happening. Inner London is becoming increasingly 'child free'.
Across the capital, pupil numbers are expected to fall by 22,000 by 2028 - double the national average.

We are feeling the consent/community vs tracking/data crunch here when it comes to talk of notify systems and safeguarding practices so much at the moment. 'Reporting' to services that are at best overwhelmed and at worst hostile feels icky, esp without consent.

Grab a coffee n let's talk about Streetlink, the main way the public is encouraged to help people who are street homeless.
As you can see from this ad, members of the public are encouraged to 'report' people sleeping rough into the app without asking the person's permission
