Ending Rough Sleeping Is Possible When Political Will and Determination Are Brought to Deliver: NAO Investigation Into the Housing of Rough Sleepers in England During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Everyone In Should Be Regarded as a Considerable Achievement: The Rehousing of 33,000 Rough Sleepers in the Early Stages of COVID-19 Demonstrates What Can Be Done When Central Government Local Authorities and Voluntary Organisations Work Together to Respond to an Extremely Urgent Priority

 

 

|| Friday: January 15: 2021 || ά. This National Audit Office:NAO Report establishes the facts on how the UK Government has provided accommodation for rough sleepers during COVID-19. On Thursday, March 26, 2020, during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Government launched its ‘Everyone In’ campaign. Everyone In required local authorities to take urgent action to house rough sleepers and those at risk of rough sleeping in order to protect public health and stop wider transmission of COVID-19.

Central Government policy responsibility for tackling homelessness sits with the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government, while the delivery of services to support homeless people sits with local authorities. This investigation is part of a programme of work NAO is undertaking to support the Parliament’s scrutiny of the Government’s response to COVID-19. In this report NAO sets out the steps, taken by the relevant Department in rehousing rough sleepers in England during the pandemic, focusing, particularly, on the steps, taken at the outset of the pandemic; the information held by the Department on those at risk of rough sleeping; and subsequent steps, that the Department has taken to provide long-term accommodation to those at risk of rough sleeping.

Rough-Sleeping Must Come to an End in England: £105 Million to Keep Rough-Sleepers Safe and Off the Streets During the Pandemic

 

 

|| Wednesday: June 24: 2020|| ά. Interim housing for thousands of rough sleepers to be taken off the streets during the pandemic is to be provided, UK ministers have announced. The additional £105 million will be used to support rough sleepers and those at risk of homelessness into tenancies of their own, including, through help with deposits for accommodation and securing thousands of alternative rooms, already available and ready for use, such as student accommodation.

The funding unveiled today takes the total amount provided this year by government to support rough sleepers and those on the brink of becoming homeless to over half a billion pounds. But these are ‘temporary good’ efforts but they are still sticking plasters. These do not end rough-sleeping, which is an absolute high-cruelty, done to citizens of a country, who by virtue of being thrown into the streets, face the clear and real disenfranchisement because it, effectively, make them ‘uncitizens’ of their own country, nation and people they are supposed to be a part of. The government must come up with clear a strategy, not ambition, not aspiration, not Paris Plaster but real and clear commitment and strategy to bring in a legislation to end rough-sleeping statutorily in England for good. It is absolutely unacceptable that in the fifth richest economy of the world, there should be citizens of this country, let to rough-sleep and suffer and die in their hundreds every year. This must come to an end and it must happen now.

Rough-sleeping is an absolute high-cruelty and it is not compatible with any human rights law nor is it compatible with the ‘natural justice foundation’ of English and British law. People are not sleeping rough because the UK and England can not afford to bring an end to this; people are forced to rough-sleep and suffer because the political forces in the government do not have the will to bring an end to this. And, this again, brings into focus the rough-sleepers becoming non-citizens so that they have no fixed abode and who care about those, who are not fixed-placed citizens, who, despite having votes and who can vote, won’t vote. Even, though, rough-sleepers do not lose their votes, when people are struggling for each breath in the mercy of elements there the world and everything in it go hay-wire. It is time that no citizens of England and the UK must be rendered non-citizens by virtue of their being thrown onto the streets to suffer, rough-sleeping.

However, this government-led drive has brought together councils, charities, the private hospitality sector and community groups with the joint aim of protecting some of the most vulnerable people in society from COVID-19 and helping them turn around their lives and get them off the streets for good. It has come during one of the most challenging periods the country has ever faced as a nation.

The announcement comes as plans to provide 6,000 long-term, safe homes continue at pace, to ensure the work being done to take society’s most vulnerable off the streets during the pandemic has a lasting impact. Last month, the government unveiled transformative plans to support thousands of rough sleepers, currently housed in emergency accommodation to move on to more sustainable, long-term housing, with 3,300 additional supported homes to be provided this year.

A further £16 million is, also, being provided so that vulnerable people currently in emergency accommodation can access specialist help they need for substance misuse issues, in order to rebuild their lives and move towards work and education.

The Housing Secretary, Rt Hon Robert Jenrick MP said, ‘’In recent months, I have seen a huge effort across the country to keep, almost, 15,000 vulnerable people off the streets. This has been vital to ensure their safety during the peak of the pandemic and has changed the lives of thousands for the better. The additional funding announced today will allow us to continue to support these individuals, giving them access to the accommodation and support they need now while we continue with plans to deliver thousands of long-term homes in the coming months. Together, this takes the funding provided by government for vulnerable rough sleepers and those at risk of becoming homeless to over half a billion this year, an unprecedented commitment as we move towards ending rough sleeping for good.’’ Indeed, this must be an urgent and unqualified commitment: to end rough-sleeping for good. The sooner the better.

The Chief Secretary to the Treasury Mr Steve Barclay MP said, ‘’It’s vital we do everything we can to support the most vulnerable people in society, especially, during challenging times like these.  This funding will not only mean that thousands of rough sleepers continue to have a roof over their head but, it, also, provides a platform to unlock new opportunities to improve their lives for the better.’’

The Chair of the COVID-19 Rough Sleeping Taskforce, Dame Louise Casey said, ‘’Everyone in’ has been an extraordinary effort from councils, charities and many others to provide a safe haven for almost 15,000 homeless people, who were either on the streets or at risk of rough sleeping during this COVID-19 pandemic. I want to thank again the hotels and other providers, who have opened their doors to some of the most vulnerable people in society at this most difficult time.    We now have an extraordinary opportunity to help keep them in and turn their lives around, if, we get the next steps right. I am clear that there can now be no going back to the streets as people begin to move on from the emergency accommodation, that has been put in place.’’ 

The government is committed to ending rough sleeping by the end of this Parliament and has taken steps to protect thousands of vulnerable rough sleepers and those at risk of becoming homeless through the pandemic, including:

Working collaboratively across government and with councils, health providers and charities, to offer emergency accommodation to, almost, 15,000 vulnerable people, known to councils at the beginning of the pandemic.

 Accelerating plans to put in place over 6,000 new supported homes as a landmark commitment to end rough-sleeping, backed by  £433 million of government funding, with 3,300 of these becoming available in the next 12 months.

An initial £03.2 million, given to councils at the beginning of the pandemic so they could take immediate action to support rough sleepers off the streets and a further £03.2 billion of additional funding to help with the immediate pressures councils are facing.

The creation of the new Rough Sleeping Taskforce, led by Dame Louise Casey, which will lead the next phase of the government’s support for rough sleepers during the pandemic.

These figures are for England only but would result in up to £19.8 million of Barnett consequentials for the devolved administrations. The £105 million is made up of £85 million of new funding from HM Treasury and £20 million from refocusing existing homelessness and rough-sleeping budgets.

The additional £16 million for substance misuse is money, already, announced but brought forward due to the challenges of the pandemic. This takes the total funding for substance misuse this year to £23 million. In April the Communities Secretary appointed Dame Louise Casey to spearhead a specialist taskforce to lead the next phase of the government’s support for rough sleepers during the pandemic.

The taskforce is working hand-in-hand with councils, charities, faith groups and other partners across the country on plans to ensure rough-sleepers can move into safe accommodation once the immediate crisis is over.

The taskforce is, also, ensuring that the thousands of rough-sleepers now in accommodation continue to receive the physical and mental health support they need over the coming weeks and months.

Now That Henry Cleary Sets His Records Standing Parallel to the Original Greek Marathon Runner He Invites You to Join His Records by Supporting His Funds for the Rough Sleepers for He Would Like the Charity Crisis He Is Supporting to See Rough Sleeping Ended

 

 

 

|| Sunday: May 10: 2020 || ά. This seven-year old loves Star Wars and in this young age has enough humanity in him to empathise and feel compassion in his heart for the plight of human beings, forced onto sleep and suffer on the street, rough sleeping, for which he decided to beat the Greek Marathon Runner’s original records by becoming, probably, the youngest one it the history of this race  and has begun running his Marathon, that he intended to complete in ten days to raise funds for the homeless charity, Crisis. He intends this fund to help Crisis provide vital and life-saving support to people, who are rough sleeping in this corona virus pandemic.

Master Henry Cleary, from Stoke Poges, Bucks, set himself the challenge to run a Marathon, running 02.6 miles every day and has already notched up £4,000 in donations in less than a week. Master Cleary says, “I was inspired by Captain Tom to take up a challenge, that would be really, really tough. I researched charities on Google and found Crisis. They want to end homelessness and keep people off the streets after corona virus and that’s exactly what I want to help them do.” He has not only been able to complete his Marathon well in advance but, also, proved that there is such a thing, called, civic society, despite being in lockdown. Because they cheered him on and supported him from their homes along his route every day, as did his little sister Ms Beatrice, riding along on her bike.

Support Henry Cleary's Marathon Run to Raise Funds to End Rough Sleeping

Every morning at 11 o'clock Master Henry sets off around his village to the sound of neighbours clapping and cheering to send him on his way. Hundreds of villagers now line the streets and cheer from their doorsteps as he runs his 02.6-mile route.

Master Cleary’s mother Ms Emily says, “We are so proud of our amazing little boy. We know that he will put his heart and soul into achieving this goal and raising as much money as possible. Saturday was, particularly, tough in the heat and he really hit 'the wall' but he amazed everyone and kept going. He was elated when he turned into our road at the end to rapturous applause.

“Henry and his sister Beatrice have always been concerned about rough sleepers. They have both donated toys for homeless children in the past and always think of others. They’re very caring kids and we’re incredibly proud of what Henry’s doing. Beatrice will, of course, be cheering him on every day and riding alongside on her scooter when she can.”

Master Henry Cleary was expected to complete the challenge today, Sunday. He was running a little over his target every day in the hope that he could beat the odds and finish on Saturday. Locals are clubbing together to plan a surprise socially-distant celebration at the finishing line.

Henry has already raised over £4,000 and you can boost this by sponsoring him here

End Homelessness: The ONS Initiative to Better Gather Data and Evidence For Policy-Makers For a World Without Homelessness: That Eats Away the Fabrics of a Civic Society

 

|| Thursday: February 13: 2020: Rachel McSweeney and Andrea Lacey Writing || ά. The ONS has been involved in an important new initiative, bringing together data from across government to better measure and map the factors that influence homelessness. These new indicators will give policy makers a deeper insight into the complexities of this serious social issue.

At the ONS, we want to harness the power of data to help policy makers make decisions which can improve the lives of vulnerable people in our society. Working with other like-minded organisations allows us to share skills and expertise to create tools which can have real impact. As a What Works Centre, CHI created the SHARE framework aiming to monitor progress towards ending homelessness and early last year, asked ONS to help develop the indicators. This was an opportunity to show how collaborative working can help solve policy issues.

ONS brought significant experience in developing indicator frameworks, understanding social challenges and analysing and visualising varied datasets. CHI, on the other hand, offered the ability to draw on expertise from their network of practitioners and policy makers, researchers, the third sector and people with experiences of homelessness and this project benefitted greatly by using this collective wisdom.

The project started by reviewing the literature on the causes of homelessness and speaking to experts in the field. This taught us that there are many factors to consider when it comes to homelessness and who may be at risk. Some people are more vulnerable to changes in conditions, such as, people, who’ve experienced a relationship breakdown and, particularly, those, who have been victims of adverse childhood experiences or violence. This initiated the development of a framework of what must be measured, if, we’re to fully understand homelessness. This initial idea went out for consultation in May 2019, we had a fantastic response from over 500 people and their feedback helped shape the framework.

The issue of homelessness is complex and this platform brings together data on different concepts, from employment and housing availability to financial well-being and social attitudes. Alongside CHI, we’ve worked closely with data experts to make sure we understand the considerations of each data set used.

Each country in the UK collects data about homelessness differently. The ONS has worked on bringing together data on homelessness and the ability to compare different sources, however, there was no central place, that collated figures on topics relating to those at risk of homelessness.

The strength of this approach is that decision makers can form a fuller picture instead of considering interlinked concepts in isolation. Much of the data contained in the platform isn’t new but, the value of this platform and working with CHI, has been to bring the statistics together and to the front line of policy debate.

The need to work across government on this project is clear and providing the link between CHI and data experts has been a key part of this work.  This platform is something, that sits alongside official statistics; it is not a replacement but, a tool, which brings statistics together on a multitude of topics from across the UK in one helpful place and puts them in a wider context.

It was a challenge to find data for every proposed indicator and there is still more work to do but, no indicator set is ever ‘finished’ and the release of the platform is the beginning rather than the end of the conversation. There are gaps to fill, breakdowns to produce and more accurate measures to find.

We will continue to work with analysts across government, the wider sector and CHI to make sure we continue to expand the evidence base to give experts the best possible chance of understanding all the factors, which have an impact on homelessness. CHI work in a very responsive way, therefore, are always interested to know what other data can be included.

To provide feedback on the platform, you can contact us at gss.housing@ons.gov.uk or CHI directly at feedback@homelessnessimpact.org.

This project has been incredibly rewarding and, we hope, this platform goes some way to helping to create lasting change to the pressing issue of homelessness in our country.

Rough Sleeping Homelessness Is High-Cruelty: End It Now

 



|| December 18: 2018 || ά. The Mayor of London, Mr Sadiq Khan, praised Londoners for donating to homelessness charities, as the amount raised by his winter rough sleeping campaign topped £78,000 in just two weeks. Mr Khan’s comments followed his visit, on the evening of December 14, to his new ‘Staging Post’ for rough sleepers in Southwark, where he met outreach workers and those, who had benefitted from the service. The service, part of the ‘No Second Night Out’ programme and funded by extra money the Mayor has secured from national Government, offers rough sleepers short-term accommodation and in-depth support to help them stay off the streets.

Mr Khan launched his winter rough sleeping campaign a fortnight ago with 35 new ‘TAP London’ contactless donation points across the capital. Since then, another 18 points have been put in place and Londoners have already used them 2,581 times, alongside, donations on the campaign’s GoFundMe page, to donate to the London Homeless Charities Group, a coalition of 22 charities tackling homelessness in the capital. Londoners have, also, responded to Mr Khan’s call to help connect those sleeping rough with outreach workers and vital services by using the StreetLink app and website. 1,474 referrals have, already, been made to StreetLink in the last fortnight.

In addition, Londoners are stepping up to volunteer and help this vital cause in any way they can, with over 450 expressing an interest in opportunities via the Team London website since Mr Khan launched his campaign. Team London is the Mayor’s volunteering programme, offering Londoners a range of volunteering opportunities across the capital, from one-off events to longer-term commitments.

The campaign is part of Mr Khan’s efforts to boost rough sleeping services in the capital, including, through using funding he has secured from national Government to double the size of City Hall’s street outreach team. The Mayor has, also, agreed with London councils that severe weather shelters will now open London-wide, if, the temperature is predicted to drop below zero anywhere in the capital. Previously, shelters were opened on a borough-by-borough basis, leading to patchy provision.

The new policy came into action as the Mayor opened emergency weather shelters across London, for the first time, this year, with temperatures dropping to zero or below in several boroughs across the capital. He has, also, worked with boroughs to sign up to the ‘In For Good’ principle , a promise that, when a rough sleeper goes to an emergency shelter, they will be accommodated there until a support plan is put in place to help them off the streets for good.

The Mayor of London, Mr Khan, said, ‘’Even, one person sleeping rough is one too many and it’s fantastic to see this year’s campaign get off to such a great start, with Londoners donating through the new TAP London contactless points and online. City Hall is doing everything we can to help rough sleepers, including, opening emergency shelters across the capital all at the same time as temperatures start to drop and expanding services to make sure people get the support they need to end their time on the streets.

We know members of the public want to help rough sleepers whenever they can and by referring any people they are concerned about to StreetLink, Londoners are making a real difference by connecting them with outreach workers. I urge Londoners to keep donating, keep referring to StreetLink and to support my calls on the Government to do more to stop the root causes of homelessness.”

Ms Petra Salva, the Director of Rough Sleeper, Offender and Migrants Services at St Mungo’s, said, “This was a welcome opportunity to introduce the Mayor to clients and staff at the Staging Post and tell him more about the service and how it links in with others across London.

It is vital to support people new to rough sleeping indoors as soon as possible, especially, as the weather gets colder and we’d encourage people to keep using the StreetLink web and app referral service, if, they are concerned about someone sleeping rough. These referrals mean that our and other outreach teams can connect people quickly into places such as NSNO and the Staging Post.

As one of the members of the London Homeless Charities Group, can we, also, thank the many generous Londoners, who have, already , upported this campaign. We will be putting the money we receive from the campaign this year into services, that help people tackling physical and mental health problems. People can face complex problems recovering from rough sleeping and homelessness but, with the right support at the right time, we know that people can and do, rebuild their lives.”

The Mayor invests almost £03.7 million every year into the No Second Night Out Service, which is run by St Mungo’s. This year, Mr Khan is, also, investing an additional £01.54 million of Government funding to expand the service, developing two new staging posts and a ‘floating hub’, which moves around London targeting rough sleeping hot spots with intensive, immediate support.

This is just one of the many services, run by the Mayor, funded from his £08.5 million a year rough sleeping budget and by the millions of pounds of additional funding he has secured from the Government. Last year the Mayor’s teams helped 5,000 rough sleepers and former rough sleepers and 86 per cent of those people were not seen on the streets again.

TAP London is set to roll out further contactless donation points across the capital, with more than 90 to be put in place throughout the winter.
Londoners can donate to the campaign via the Fund’s Go Fund Me page.

£7,743 has been donated through the TAP London contactless donation points. £23,576 has, also, been raised through donations on the London Homeless Charities Group’s online Go Fund Me page, as well as, a direct donation to the Group of £47,500 from The Berkeley Foundation.

|| July 29: 2018: || ά. This Briefing Paper provides background information on the increase in the number of homeless households, placed in temporary accommodation by English local authorities and outlines various initiatives and issues associated with this increased use of temporary accommodation. Local housing authorities in England have a duty to secure accommodation for unintentionally homeless households in priority need under Part Seven of the Housing Act 1996 as amended. And, will the country contemplate the utter, absolute and insane waste of public money in this ‘temporary accommodation fiasco of a system’: ‘’£01.1bn spent by English local authorities in 2015-16, £845 million was spent on temporary accommodation’’. And what purpose does it serve to waste this amount money while it does not resolve the problem of these homeless families, who, after the end of that financial year, still remain homeless in that same ‘waste-space-left-to-wither-away’ state?

The most recent official statistics, published on June 27 this year, recorded 79,880 households in temporary accommodation at the end of March 2018. This marks the twenty-seventh time, that the number of households in temporary accommodation has risen compared with the same quarter of the previous year. The 79,880 households include 123,230 children, representing a 65% increase since the first quarter of 2010. Of these households, 54,540, 68%, were placed in temporary accommodation in London. The number of families with dependent children placed in B and B-style accommodation increased from 630 at the end of March 2010 to 2,180 at the end of March 2018.

Households, might be, placed in temporary accommodation pending the completion of inquiries into an application or they, might, spend time waiting in temporary accommodation after an application is accepted until suitable secure accommodation becomes available. Official statistics published in December 2011 marked the end of the long-term downward trend in the number of households in temporary accommodation; seasonally-adjusted figures had fallen in each successive quarter since peaking in 2004.

Various initiatives have been pursued to try to limit the use of unsuitable B and B-type temporary accommodation. For example, local authorities have focused on securing private rented housing through lease agreements with private landlords. Authorities, particularly, in areas of high housing demand, argue that their ability to do this has been affected by Housing Benefit reforms, meaning that landlords can secure higher returns from letting their properties on the open market to non-Housing Benefit claimants; although, not all homeless applicants are in receipt of Housing Benefit.

One response has been for authorities to seek temporary accommodation outside of their own areas. There was a 250% increase in the number of households placed in temporary accommodation outside of their local authority between the first quarter of 2011 and the first quarter of 2018. Local authority expenditure on homelessness services, including, temporary accommodation, has ‘steadily increased since 2010’.

February 2016 saw the publication of research commissioned by London Councils from the Centre for Housing Policy at the University of York, which identified specific issues for London authorities in securing temporary accommodation: "A perfect storm of market conditions and policy changes means that providing temporary accommodation for homeless individuals and families is increasingly challenging for London boroughs."

On December 17, 2015 the Communities and Local Government Select Committee launched an inquiry into the causes of homelessness, as well as, the approach taken by national and local government to prevent and tackle homelessness. The Committee asked for written evidence to be submitted by February 08, 2016. Some respondents submitted evidence calling for more flexibility in providing temporary accommodation outside of their local areas. The Committee’s report was published on August 18, 2016. The Committee called on the Government to initiate a ‘renewed, cross-Departmental Government strategy’.

The National Audit Office:NAO published a report on Homelessness in September 2017 in which it observed that of the £01.1bn spent by English local authorities in 2015-16, £845 million was spent on temporary accommodation:

Three-quarters of this spending, £638 million, was funded by housing benefit, of which £585 million was recovered from the Department for Work and Pensions. Spending on temporary accommodation has increased by 39% in real terms since 2010‑11. There is, also, a wider cost stemming from the impact of homelessness on public services, such as, healthcare. The Department does not have a robust estimate of this wider cost. 

The NAO recommended that: i: The Department should work with local authorities to ensure that they are making the most effective use of temporary accommodation. This work should include enabling local authorities to increase their use of the innovative short-term solutions, that they are taking; ii: The Public Accounts Committee’s:PAC December 2017 report, Homeless Households, observed that temporary accommodation is ‘often of a poor standard and does not offer value for money’.  The Committee recommended:

The Department should take steps to eliminate the use of non-decent temporary accommodation and to enable local authorities to replace this supply with local alternatives, that offer better value for money.

|| July 17: 2018 || ά. Housing First:HF is an alternative homelessness intervention strategy, aimed at people with complex needs, particularly, rough sleepers. This House of Commons Library paper describes the principles behind Housing First and outlines some of the evidence behind it. The paper, also, sets out how Housing First has developed in the UK and what support it has been offered by the governments of the UK, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

Traditional homeless interventions for people with complex needs usually require them to complete a series of steps to make them ‘housing ready’ before moving into their own accommodation. Proponents of HF argue that there is a high drop-out rate from these schemes; users can struggle to meet their strict requirements and, thus, risk becoming chronically homeless. Advocates of HF support the early provision of permanent housing, which provides a stable home from which it is easier to deal with other underlying issues, such as, substance abuse.

Unlike most traditional approaches, HF commits to support individuals for as long as they require, even, if, a person leaves HF accommodation. Proponents of the HF model do not argue that all current strategies should be replaced by Housing First; it is seen as a programme, particularly, for those with multiple needs and as a complement to a wide range of rough sleeping interventions.

The principles of HF were first developed in the USA, particularly, by the Pathways to Housing project established in New York City in 1992. Since then, HF has been used by organisations in Europe and adopted by several European governments as part of their homelessness strategies. Studies have suggested that these projects result in better housing retention rates amongst users with complex needs.

The Scottish, Welsh, Northern Ireland and UK Governments have all committed to exploring the model. In England, what is now the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:MHCLG funded a Housing First feasibility study in the Liverpool region, the results of which were published July 2017. The Autumn Budget 2017 committed £28 million to support three Government-sponsored pilots in the West Midlands, Liverpool City Region and Greater Manchester. Funding allocations for the pilots were announced on May 09, 2018.

Increased interest in HF in England is taking place within the context of a growth in rough sleeping. Overall, the number of rough sleepers has increased by 169% from 1,768 in 2010 to 4,751 in 2017. The Government has a target of halving rough sleeping by 2022 and eliminating it by 2027; it is recognised that some innovative approaches to helping people with complex needs off the streets will need to be adopted.

The evidence base for the successes claimed by the HF approach has been subject to a certain amount of challenge. Questions have been asked about the quality of the evidence; there is also debate about several aspects of the HF model including:

Unfair depictions of traditional approaches which use, especially in the UK, many of the ideas behind Housing First.

Questions about the cost-effectiveness of a Housing First programme when compared to other models.

Difficulties in providing open-ended funding, finding accommodation and employing sufficient support staff.

Housing First’s ability to improve other outcomes, such as health, offending rates, substance abuse and so forth.

The State of the Statutory Homelessness in England

 

 

 

|| July 08: 2018 || ά. This piece is based on this parliamentary briefing paper, that provides statistics on statutory homelessness in England and explains the duties of local authorities to assist homeless households. The paper includes an overview of and comment on, Government policy in this area. Local authorities in England have a duty to secure accommodation for unintentionally homeless households, who fall into a ‘priority need’ category.  There is no duty to secure accommodation for all homeless people. For example, there is no statutory duty to secure housing for homeless single people and couples without children, who are not deemed to be vulnerable for some reason. And, this is where the ‘existing political acceptance’ of homelessness resides and thrives on so that the entire system is designed to find and make ways to ensure the state spends the least amount of money in ensuring people have homes.

No one speaks about this apparent ‘disgrace’ that the very laws, that are designed to support homeless people, yet, such laws spend so much time to find ways and means to ‘exclude and bar’ people from getting that help they need. Take this ‘intentional homelessness’ idea! Who on earth becomes internationally homeless! Who came up with this most absurd and most ridiculous idea! But it is in the law, which local authorities use or abuse to exclude people simply because they have been given very little resource to meet all the needs so they use this to simply shut people out. A homeless single person does not have a duty owed to her:him. Why is this? Are single people not humans? Are they not citizens of this state and this country? Then, why and how on earth the very law of this country says quite ‘lawfully’ that the country, its state and government do not have a duty owed to them! But this is how it is because the political parties do not want to commit to end homelessness and they would rather continue to support this awful state of the massive homelessness crises crippling lives.

Official statistics on statutory homelessness is published quarterly by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government in March, June, September and December. In recent times, these bulletins have included statistics on local authority prevention and relief work. In June 2018, the MHCLG published a note setting out planned changes to the statutory homelessness statistics.

Local authorities are now required to submit case-level data to the Ministry via a new system called H-CLIC. H-CLIC provides data on individual people in each household, previously, only, household-level data was available. H-CLIC is, also, designed to capture local authorities’ prevention and relief activity under the Homelessness Reduction Act 2017. 

The financial year 2010:11 saw a 10% increase in homelessness acceptances by local authorities, representing the first financial year increase since 2003:4. Homelessness acceptances continued to rise over the following three years but fell by 03% between 2012:13 and 2013:14. The 2014:15 financial year recorded a further increase, with acceptances 36% higher than in 2009:10 but 60% below the peak in 2003:4).

The 2015:16 financial year saw acceptances increase by a further 06% on 2014:15 and the 2016:17 financial year recorded a 02% increase on the previous year. The figures for 2017:18 show a 05% reduction in acceptances on 2016:17.

Organisations such as Shelter and Crisis have long argued that the official statistics do not give a full picture of homelessness in England. The figures have excluded those, who are homeless but who do not approach a local authority for assistance and those, who do not meet the statutory criteria.

Local authorities had increasingly adopted informal responses to tackling homelessness, which resulted in households falling outside the official quarterly monitoring process. The Ministry has said that H-CLIC should ‘allow us to better understand the causes and effects of homelessness’.

The increase in statutory homelessness since 2009:10 is attributed to a number of factors, of which the most important is identified as the continuing shortfall in levels of new house building relative to levels of household formation. Housing Benefit reforms are, also, viewed as a contributory factor, particularly, in London.

In addition to contributing to levels of homelessness, local authorities in areas of high housing demand argue that benefit reforms are, also, making it more difficult for them to secure housing for eligible applicants. Homelessness Monitor: England 2017 said, ‘’Almost two thirds, 64%, of councils across England are struggling to find social tenancies for homeless people, while half find it 'very difficult' to assist applicants into privately rented accommodation.’’

The report, which includes evidence from 162 of England’s 326 local authorities, shows that councils are finding it, particularly, difficult to house homeless young people and large families, with 85% of responding councils having difficulties assisting single people aged 25-34 into accommodation and 88% finding it difficult to house large families.

The National Audit Office:NAO, 2017, determined that the impact of the Government’s welfare reforms on homelessness had not been evaluated: Homelessness in all its forms has significantly increased in recent years and at present costs the public sector in excess of £01 billion a year. It appears likely that the decrease in affordability of properties in the private rented sector, of which welfare reforms, such as, the capping of Local Housing Allowance are an element, have driven this increase in homelessness. Despite this, the government has not evaluated the impact of its welfare reforms on homelessness or the impact of the mitigations, that it has put in place.

The Public Accounts Committee, December 2017, said that the Government’s attitude to reducing homelessness ‘has been unacceptably complacent’. The Government responded to the PAC report in March 2018 and accepted several recommendations.

Homelessness arising from parents:friends:relatives being no longer willing or able to provide accommodation remains significant, as does homelessness arising from the breakdown of a violent relationship. However, the most frequently cited reason for loss of the last settled home is now the ending of an assured shorthold tenancy in the private rented sector. In the first quarter of 2018 this reason was behind 27% of all statutory homeless acceptances in England.

The Coalition Government declared tackling homelessness to be a key priority. A Ministerial Working Group on Homelessness was established which published Making every contact count: A joint approach to preventing homelessness, August 2012. March 2015 saw publication of Addressing complex needs: improving services for vulnerable homeless people, which summarises the work of the group since its inception in 2010.

The 2015 Government appointed the Minister for Local Government, Mr Marcus Jones, to head up the homelessness brief at what was then DCLG. Ms Heather Wheeler took over this role in January 2018.

The Government announced on December 12, 2015 that it would work with homelessness organisations and across government departments ‘to explore options, including, legislation, to prevent more people from facing a homelessness crisis in the first place’.

On December 17, 2015 the Communities and Local Government Select Committee launched an inquiry into the causes of homelessness, as well as, the approach taken by national and local government to prevent and tackle homelessness. The Committee’s report was published on August 18, 2016. The Committee identified significant variations in the level of service offered to homeless applicants by local authorities and called on the Government to initiate a ‘renewed, cross-Departmental Government strategy’. 

During summer 2015 Crisis established an independent panel of experts to assess the strengths and weaknesses of the current homelessness legislation in England. The panel’s findings were published in April 2016: The Homelessness legislation: an independent review of the legal duties owed to homeless people. The panel concluded that the case for reform was strong and favoured changes to place more emphasis on preventative work within a statutory framework, particularly, in relation to single people and childless couples. The annex to the report includes suggested amendments to the current legislative framework.

Mr Bob Blackman drew second place in the 2016 Private Members’ Bill Ballot. He introduced the Homelessness Reduction Bill 2016-17 on June 29, 2016. The Bill secured Government and cross-Party support and obtained Royal Assent on April 27, 2017. When fully in force the Act will require local authorities in England to place more emphasis on the prevention of homelessness.

More information on the Act can be found in these Library papers: Homelessness Reduction Bill 2016-17 and Homelessness Reduction Bill 2016-17: Progress in the Commons and Lords. The Act's provisions came into force on April 03, 2018. Local authorities are concerned that the additional funding the Government is making available, £72 million, will be insufficient to cover the cost of the new duties.

Duties owed to the non-statutory homeless are covered in the Library briefing paper entitled Rough Sleeping 02007. A separate paper focuses on the placement of statutorily homeless households in temporary accommodation 02110. For a collection of homelessness statistics for local authorities see local authority homelessness statistics England 07586. For an overview of statistical indicators see: Homelessness: Social Indicators 02646.

Local level data on homeless acceptances in England can be viewed using the Library's online tool: 07586.

There are increasing variations in approaches to homelessness in Scotland and Wales:  these variations are outlined in Comparison of homelessness duties in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland 07201.

End Homelessness A Decent Home is Not a Privilege for the Few But a Right Owed to All Regardless of Income: Jeremy Corbyn MP

 
 

 

 

|| April 19: 2018 || ά. Mr  Jeremy Corbyn, the Leader of the Labour Party said, in a speech at the launch of the Party's Housing for the Many Review, ''We are launching this Green Paper at a time of crisis for our housing system. A million on housing waiting lists, tens of thousands of children in temporary accommodation without a home to call their own; homelessness up by 50% since 2010; the indignity of sleeping on our streets at night or sofa surfing among friends; sky-high rents and house prices; luxury flats proliferating across our big cities; while social housing is starved of investment. And the horror of the fire in Grenfell Tower, a fire in which people literally died because of where they lived, haunting the nation’s conscience.

Today, Labour set out our plan to turn this around and it involves two simple steps: build enough housing and make sure that housing is affordable to those, who need it. That’s why we have promised today that the next Labour Government will deliver one million genuinely affordable homes over ten years, the majority of which will be for social rent. And that we will dismiss the Tories farcical definition of affordable housing for the sham that it is, replacing it with a definition, that understands that whether housing is affordable or not depends on how much people earn, not how much speculators have flooded property markets. We know that building houses on the scale that’s needed will not be easy.

House building has been in steady decline for decades, from over 350,000 a year at the beginning of the 1970s to well below 200,000 today. The only times we have built enough affordable housing is when councils have stepped up. We know by now that we can not rely on arms-length incentives for private house builders, building for profit to solve the crisis. As they themselves openly acknowledge, it is simply not profitable for them to build houses for the less well-off. We need to do it ourselves. But council building has been in decline since the Tories introduced the Right to Buy at the same time as shackling councils by prohibiting them from using the proceeds to replace the houses sold.

Fifty years ago, local authorities were responsible for, nearly, half of all new housing completions. Nowadays it is just 02%. At the beginning of the Thatcher years, nearly, a third of housing in this country was for social rent. That figure is now less than 20%. We know that we can reverse that under Labour. Today, Sadiq Khan announces that the number of affordable homes and the number of homes for social rent, started in London in the last year, are higher than in any year since the GLA was given control of affordable housing funding in the capital. That is the difference Labour can make in Office. But Sadiq and his team are starting from an extremely low base and working within the crippling constraints imposed by this Government.

A Government, that has not only failed to deliver on social housing but made it their mission to eliminate it, cutting social housing grants, time and time again, redefining affordable housing so that it’s no such thing, forcing councils to sell their best stock. This has left councils under enormous pressure, left with the responsibility to house people without the powers or funding to do so. To turn this around will require radical measures to properly fund, empowe, and support councils to deliver affordable housing for all.

This Green Paper sets out many of the radical measures needed, transforming the planning system and ending the 'viability' loophole so that commercial developers aren’t let off the hook; giving councils new powers to acquire land to build on and better use land the public already owns and the financial backing to, actually, deliver, which means the ability to borrow to build restored to all councils and extra support from central government, too.

Over the coming months we will go, even, further, throwing everything we can into building council capacity so that, once again, they can build on the scale, that’s needed. It will mean a new era of social housing, in which councils are, once again, the major deliverers of social and genuinely affordable housing and set the benchmark for the highest size and environmental standards. When the post-war Labour government built hundreds of thousands of council houses in a single term in office, they transformed the lives of millions of people.

People emerged from six years of brutal war to be lifted out of over-crowded and unhygienic slums into high quality new homes and introduced to hitherto unknown luxuries, such as, indoor toilets and their own gardens. Setting new benchmarks in size and energy efficiency, something, that old council stock still does to this day council; housing was not a last resort but a place, where people were proud to live.

Today’s challenges are different but the ambition needed is the same. At the heart of the housing crisis we face today, is that housing has become a means of speculation for a wealthy few, leaving many unable to access a decent, secure home. As a country, we have lost the principle that a decent home is not a privilege for the few but a right owed to all, regardless of income. Let today mark a turning point, from which we start to get it back. The only way to do it is through social housing. And that’s what a Labour Government will deliver.

Regine Humanics Foundation Begins Its Journey Today: The Humanion Is Now A Regine Humanics Foundation Publication

 
 

 

|| April 06: 2018 || ά. The Humanion was first published on September 24, 2015 and has been run, since that day, on a complete voluntary basis without any 'formal' or 'constituted' manner or form and, it was run on as a Human Enterprise, which is an idea of Humanics, in which, ownership is replaced by belongingship and, thus, in a Humanical Society, no one owns anything but everyone belongs to the whole as the whole belongs to everyone lawfully and equally and, it neither believes in nor makes money but human utilities, needs, aspirations, creativity, imagination and dreams are served without money, where everyone works and creates for all others as all others create and work for all others, thus, bringing in meaning and purpose to life along with it come natural justice, equality and liberty, that establish a true civilisation within the Rule of Law. And in one word, this system of human affairs management is called, Humanics and a society that runs itself in humanics is called a humanical society. Today, we have begun the process of 'constituting' this Human Enterprise, which does not exist in the current system, but the next closest thing to it, that exists in the UK Law is Social Enterprise. Therefore, today, Friday, April 06, 2018, we are beginning Regine Humanics Foundation, that is the 'Agency', that will lead, run, manage and develop everything, that The Humanion has been trying to do.

Regine Humanics Foundation is established by the Thinker, Author, Poet, Novelist, Playwright, Editor of The Humanion, Festival Director of London Poetry Festival and a Humanicsxian: hu: maa: neek: tian: One, that believes in, lives and exists by Humanics, Mr Munayem Mayenin, of London, England, United Kingdom. Mr Mayenin says, ''Humanics is a vision; people, may, call it, utopia, we, call it our Humanicsovicsopia; Humanics. Humanics is our philosophy, our faith, our conviction, our resolution, our way of existing, thinking, being and doing: to seek and try to do so in the determination that all we must do and be is to exist to advance the human condition. People, readers and agencies and organisations, from all across England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, Wales and the whole of the United Kingdom and Australasia, Africa, Asia, Europe, North and South America, from all walks and strata of life, have supported our endeavours, supported The Humanion and The Humanion Team, who volunteered their time to run things, since the beginning of The Humanion and long before that, when other things, that are now part of The Foundation, were developing. Nothing has changed in terms of the nature and value of what we have been seeking to do.''

''But the founding of The Foundation brings it all in a solid foundation so that we can keep on building this 'vision' so that it keeps on going regardless of who come to take the vision-mission of The Foundation forward. The Foundation runs along with time and along with the flowing humanity. This is the dream, this is the vision, this the hope in founding this Foundation. And, in this, we hope and invite all our readers, supporters, well wishers and all agencies and organisations to support our endeavours to build something, a Human Enterprise, which we are in the process of registering as a Social Enterprise, as a Community Interest Company, working for the common good of the one and common humanity. No one makes or takes profit out of The Foundation, which now runs The Humanion and everything else, that is part of it. The Foundation, once registered, will have an Asset Lock, which means that in any event, should The Foundation dissolve itself, all its existing assets shall go to a similar Social Enterprise. Therefore, we invite everyone to support The Foundation, support The Humanion in whatever way they can. And, there are endless number of ways people and organisations can support The Foundation and The Humanion.'' ::: ω.

End Homelessness The Humanion Campaign: It's a Choice: Once Made by a Society to End It Homelessness Becomes Part of History: Right to a Home for Every Human Soul is a Foundational Human Right

 

 

A Human Agency is comprised of the Human Soul that is lawfully accepted as a Person who is inherently, fundamentally and naturally born with full and unheeded, unhindered and uninfringed access to and exercise of all the natural rights that natural justice affords it, that in human law, we call 'Human Rights'. And before this human law, the Human Rights, a Human Agency stands as a Person who is, as afforded by Natural Justice, entitled to: a Personhood that cannot be violated, it can not be taken away. A Person's Personhood is extended, as if a garden is added to a house, by a political 'border' by a 'statehood' which is expressed by the Person's membership to a state or citizenship; this membership to a state, this extension of the Person as the extension of a house onto a garden, cannot be taken away.

And even with the Personhood and the extended Personhood, the Human Agency is unable to function until and unless it has a home. The Primary Centre of the Human Agency is the Person that claims the Personhood and its extension but it all still needs a form to house it all. And that form of the Person is a home without which the Person is no longer a Person and cannot be, maintain and continue to be a Person and even its Personhood becomes invalid. Because without a home a Person often is outside the reach, provisions and services of the state and the society and all its mechanisms. Thus, home is a paramount necessity for that Person to exist as a Human Agency. And once the Person has a home the Person still requires the tools to keep the house and the garden in order to live in them as a valid, active and creative entity and without these tools, the Person cannot exist as a Person, as Human Agency.

Therefore, that tool, this Person must have and this is Education. Thus, for a Human Agency, to be a Person with a Personhood one must have Statehood and that statehood must provide this Person with a Home and the tools, Education. And as the Human Agency's Person cannot be taken away, the Personhood:statehood cannot be taken away, the Person's Home cannot be taken away either. Until Humanity achieves this for all human beings, a home for each individual of the entire humanion, we cannot claim to have achieved civilisation. This is why ending homelessness and ensuring every single citizen of a state has a home is so paramount. In order to be a Person a Human Agency must have a Personhood extended by its membership to a State which must provide it with a Home and an Education: And the Human Agency, Its Personhood, Its Home and Its Education Must Never Be Taken Away from It Ever. When the State fails to provide each and every of its citizen with a Home and an Education, it ought to be deemed that this State has taken the Home and Education away from these Persons which cannot and must not ever be taken away from a Person. The Humanion: October 01: 2016

What

The Humanion believes ''No humans can be or stay humans if they do not have a home which by the way is the only avenue to see that someone is connected to that country:nation. If one is homeless this person is cut out of his:her country:nation all together. The society must ensure everyone has a home from which no one can turn them away like the way no one can take their citizenship away so that each and every member of such a nation has a real stake in the country:nation. There is adversarial nonsense about it might be heard like intentional homelessness or this or the other. Everyone needs a home and it is the duty:job of the government to ensure that that is the case. For those who have no home have no connection to the nation they are supposed to be part of even if they are citizens of that country/nation they are essentially robbed off their citizenship.'' Readmore

''That disempowerment of the majority of the populace by way of ensuring that most people have no connection or stake to the society/state in which they live since most people live on rented properties paying to enrich the private landlords and because of this they do not have any stake whatever to the nation they are supposed to belong. They become homeless simply because the landlords want them out and give them notice.

''This is the most profound of the all problems that this country faces. Most people do not and cannot own a home. They simply can never buy a home so that they have to live on rented accommodation which is either social housing or private housing. Social housing has been diminishing and now been effectively wiped out. No more social housing. Now there are homeless people, there are homeless floating people, there are old social housing renting people and the privately renting population. But in a nutshell all these people who do not own a home have no connection or stake to the nation. Each and every single member of a nation must have a home that no one can take away from them. No government, no authority, no landlord, no parliament can take it away. The very way one’s citizenship to a country cannot be taken away one’s home must not be taken away. Only than truly a nation can say that each and every member of it is connected to the nation and has a stake in it. Since without a home a human is really not a proper human. Abode is what a home is called in English. Abode is where one abides or resides. A home is to a human being as the skin of a human physiology; without the home of the skin a human simply cannot live or continue to be a human physically. And the place, the skin where one resides is the person of the humanity of that body that lives within that person. Therefore, without an abode to abide a person is not a person proper as there cannot live a human without skin. 

''It is the duty, responsibility and humanical imperative for society to provide each and every of its member with a permanent home; a home is the skin of a human being which completes his:her person and it is absolutely deadly to take that skin away for this withdrawal or lack of skin ensures the ultimate perishing of that incomplete being. This is the ultimate and final yardstick of what civilisation is about. Homelessness and citizenship do not go together, cannot go together.

''If one does not have a home and lives on the street one cannot even vote in an election, one cannot even get mails sent to them and one would have to go through almost impossible amount of obstacles even to get one’s lawful entitlement to a benefit. The social housing is not a charity; it is the certainty that one is part of a country and nation and one shall remain so. Social housing must, therefore, be provided for those who do not have a home. They should pay a rent but that should be decided on a thirty year life-span like a mortgage and the government then invest that rent, putting all the rent together in the form of some investment:endowment, so that at the end of the thirty year period the rent should bring in a reasonable sum of money in one go. The government takes its rent out of it and take the rest as the final payment for the home and the person then becomes owner of that home. One can do the maths if one likes. If one pays a rent, say, of 10,000 a year, in 30 years one would pay 300,000. If each month’s rent is paid to even an endowment policy this should pay a big sum at the end of it. This way the government can renew its housing stock in every thirty years cycle. And truly the nation will achieve civilisation. This, cannot be accepted, as a satisfactory thing that humans, citizens of an advanced democracy live on the street and they are left there to die! This is not acceptable. This simply and utterly is not acceptable. People, must not be forced to live on rented houses of private sector where they live as if they are committing a crime. They are given notice and they are chucked out. This is not acceptable at all. A person cannot be a person unless a person has a home and unless a person is a person than he:she cannot be part of a nation that is made of persons. This is the other yardstick of civilisation that a nation ensures, through its state:government,  that each and every of its members are given a skin to complete that person’s becoming a true human being who is capable of calling himself:herself a complete person because he:she has the skin to offer him:her a home.'' Readmore

End Homelessness Campaign

On this philosophic principle that a person is not a person until that entity of a human being has a home for a home as skin completes that person's becoming a whole and complete person, The Humanion is launching End Homelessness Campaign

To Campaign to End Homelessness in the UK

a. End Rough Sleeping

No one must sleep on the street

b. End Floating Homelessness

Families and individuals/single persons living and floating around bed and breakfast accommodations, in second/third rate privately rented temporary accommodations, often sent to live in areas/towns/cities where they have no connections/communities/friends/families and children are missing schools/falling behind

c: End the Culture of Acceptance that Homelessness is Acceptable

End the culture of politics/politicians/political parties accepting that homelessness is acceptable. IT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. PERIOD.

d: End Local Authorities Making People Homeless Using Court System

End the practice/culture/acceptance whereby local authorities and other social housing bodies/Private Landlords as a matter of course, making people/families/children homeless by using routine magistrate court mechanism. Go and check the records of Magistrate Courts and other court records and see for yourself how many people are systematically and routinely being uprooted from their homes every week. It is astounding to see how absolutely ruthless the local authorities can get (using public money to fund the legal cost and imposing further financial burdens on the poor tenants that they are evicting).

e: Achieve Change in Private Sector Renting

Achieve change in the private sector renting laws so that there comes into force an equitable, statutory and universal (applicable equally in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland) system/mechanism and culture in private sector renting so that the private sector landlords do not think they own the country and can treat the people renting as their means to make profit. Moreover, renting from private sector is now, for an individual is probably more difficult than attempting to go to the moon unless they are rich. This must change. Anyone should be able to rent from properties that are available for rent without facing a Himalaya of barriers put before them by way of references/credit checks/deposits/rent in advance and lot more and most major estate agents simply won't even hear anyone who would pay the rent using housing benefits. What is wrong with the rent money/the pounds paid from Housing Benefit? Are these pounds not good enough? This must change.

f: Achieve the political/social/cultural/economical acceptance that every UK citizen has a right to a home

Achieve the political/social/cultural/economical acceptance that every UK citizen has a right to (as much right to the citizenship of the nation) a home and those that cannot buy a home must be provided with a home by the government/state. If they say, it is not possible, The Humanion Challenges them to show why or how it is not possible. Because this is a problem and mathematically speaking, that what does not have a solution inherently present inside it, cannot be a problem.

Please, join The Campaign. Let us end homelessness in the UK.

Nor is it where things are kept 
A home is what skins the soul
Without it a human is non-person
Incomplete suffers slowly dying

Why

Homelessness is a problem. A Mathematician approaches a problem to solve it, knowing/believing the problem is solvable for without a solution inherently present inside the problem, a problem is not a problem Mathematically. So she/he seeks to solve the problem which will be solved.

The most visionary and most advanced creative thinking is a must in order to approach this problem of homelessness with a right mindset so that a solution can be found. One does not, for example, take a butter knife to cut a rock nor take a kitchen knife to operate a patient. Hence, right approach and mindset is a must. At the same time, a Consultant, is faced with a patient, displaying symptoms that she has never encountered: does she go home? Does she think, this has no cure? Does she think, there is nothing, that could help the patient? Does she simply tells the patient to go home? No, she does not. She believes in the solution of this problem and she will find it (because she shall not cease until she does).

The politicians have given up thinking for a solution of the problem of solving homelessness and accepted that homelessness is an inevitability.

IT ABSOLUTELY IS NOT AN INEVITABILITY.

It is simply a matter of making it appear politically acceptable. We must not accept homelessness as acceptable. Once we have achieved this that homelessness is not only not acceptable but also that we won't simply have it. That will force the politicians/political parties to wake up and do something about it.

Think of Apollo 13: did the NASA people give up and leave the Astronauts to hang out to dry because they were in trouble? No, at NASA, they believed there was and must be a solution to that problem and they brought to bear the highest most best of human ingenuity on the problem, sought and found a solution (most importantly, absolutely, doggedly, refused even to consider thinking of giving up) and brought the Astronauts home. And, indeed, not only was it the finest hour in NASA's history, it is one of the pinnacle-hour of human ingenuity.

Hence, we repeat: there cannot a be a problem without having an inherent solution inside it (for without that it is not a problem, Mathematically speaking).

And The Humanion believes we can resolve the problem of homelessness if we seek to do it by making a choice that we simply won't accept homelessness.

How

End Homelessness The Humanion Campaign

The Campaign is not, in a traditional sense, an organisation. But we seek to bring together as many and as diverse range of organisations in the entire length and breadth of the country from working with and among the peoples of all nations on the British Isles as well as individuals.

Does it cost anything: Nothing

Does anyone make money out of it: None. No one

Is The Campaign Raising Money: No

Is anyone getting promotion out of this: No one.

However, one might argue The Humanion gets benefitted; however, The Humanion is a Human Enterprise (that does not believe in money nor in making money: rather in human enterprises that belong to all those who chose to belong to them which requires neither money nor the idea of it. And in this sense, The Humanion is a not for profit/charitable body. Or that The Humanion Editor or people involved in The Humanion Team ( to which anyone canjoin if they believe in what The Humanion stands for and is doing) would get free promotion: no one in The Humanion including the Editor makes any money from or off The Humanion. The Editor thinks/writes/does the work for The Humanion for nothing. Nor does he rely on income from his books for he works to earn a living.
