Today we’re marking World Homelessness Day. The health inequalities associated with homelessness are so severe that lives are cut short by over 30 years, tragically many people dying from treatable conditions.

The latest @ourmoh.bsky.social 'Dying Homeless' report lays bare the tragedy of 1,611 people dying in the UK while homeless in 2024. We owe a debt of gratitude for MoH's work, going some way to make up for the invisibility of housing and homelessness in official mortality statistics and NHS data.

Thank you @homelessnessimpact.bsky.social for today’s Impact Forum on shifting homelessness from crisis to prevention. With latest statistics revealing a 20% year on year rise in rough sleeping, it was excellent to join colleagues to explore evidence-based interventions which will drive change.

📢 Final reminder! 📢 The call for papers for our Pathways from Homelessness 2026 Conference being held on 18th and 19th March closes on Friday 25 September. Thinking of submitting? Don't delay! Find out more and submit your work here 👇 tinyurl.com/2f59f7jy

[1/3] 👏 Great to see @dannybealesmp.bsky.social raise the invisibility of homelessness within healthcare data with the Minister for Patient Safety, Women’s Health and Mental Health during the Health Select Committee’s Inquiry into Community Mental Health Services.

Thank you @dannybealesmp.bsky.social for chairing today's excellent Parliamentary roundtable on the role of the NHS in tackling homelessness. Convened by @pathwayuk.bsky.social, MPs heard about 3 evidence-based interventions which must be included in the Cross-Government Homelessness Strategy 👇

Our CEO, Alex Bax, was delighted to attend the launch of the APPG for Ending Homelessness' excellent new report today. With the imminent publication of the Government's Homelessness Strategy, it's great to see his evidence on the role of healthcare in preventing homelessness reflected in the report.

We're delighted to announce that the topic of our next online Masterclass will be Oral Health and Homelessness. Join us on Tuesday 21st October from 15.30 to 17.00 BST to share learning and for rich discussion. Find out more & book your place here 👇 tinyurl.com/yutknp8e

Co-production is at the heart of what we do. People with experience of homelessness advise across all our work. This year Ross has been a key member of our #RHSChelsea show garden team - right from the start, through to the garden opening at its new home with @shekinahcharity.bsky.social.

We believe that everyone has the chance of a long and healthy life. That’s why we're proud to join the @healthequals.bsky.social coalition to support action on the building blocks of health and #MakeHealthEqual in the UK. Find out more ⤵️ tinyurl.com/42yny28j

📢 Excited to announce that our ‘Pathways from Homelessness’ Conference 2026 will be held on 18th and 19th March in London, with options to attend online or at a regional hub. The call for papers for the conference is now OPEN. Find out more here 👇

📢 Read our newly published report on high rates of self-discharge from A&E by people experiencing homelessness. Co-authored by an expert team led by Pathway Fellow @inclusivepeolc.bsky.social, the paper sets out effective and appropriate responses to improve care 👇 tinyurl.com/yc2j756n

Huge thanks to @westonfdn.bsky.social for generously awarding us a grant of £50,000. Focussed on improving the health of people experiencing homelessness and other dimensions of severe social exclusion, the grant will enable us to continue all 3 core areas of our work 👇

A beautiful morning in Plymouth- what a day for the official launch of the RHS Chelsea @pathwayuk.bsky.social garden at Shekinah- wonderful way to celebrate collaboration for #inclusionhealth

The NHS 10 Year Plan is bold and ambitious, describing a vision of how all want to be treated – with continuous, accessible, integrated care. We welcome the Plan’s recognition of the poor health and early deaths of people facing homelessness as an ‘intolerable injustice’. 👇

Written by Gill Taylor, @pathwayuk.bsky.social is delighted to share our new report on integrated working for inclusion health. The report details learning and action recommendations from our 2nd successful collaborative Integrated Care System Inclusion Health Learning Programme. (1/4)

We welcome the investment in the NHS and social housing announced in today’s #SpendingReview. Safe and secure housing is a bedrock of good health. Implementation of these plans must not overlook the extreme health inequalities faced by people experiencing homelessness 👇 (1/3)

Ahead of the #SpendingReview, the Govt must choose: 💷 Invest in specialist homelessness services ❌ Keep risking lives & wasting NHS resources We delivered an open letter to No. 10 last week, urging Govt to back their own promises. Let’s see if they do. #ASafePlaceToRecover

A year ago, we shared the brutal reality of street discharge at #ConfedExpo. Our message remains the same: It's unsafe, inhumane, and avoidable. With the #SpendingReview days away, the Govt must fund reforms to end this practice - for good. #ASafePlaceToRecover #Homelessness #NHS

Today, we joined colleagues with lived experience of homelessness to deliver an open letter to 10 Downing Street. Our message to Keir Starmer: stop discharging people from hospital to the street. It’s cruel and inefficient.

Great to support @crisis-uk.bsky.social @sheltercharity.bsky.social @natfednews.bsky.social's call for the Chancellor to invest in a future built on secure and genuinely affordable social homes in next week's Spending Review.

''It seems to me a really cruel thing to do.'' Join Dr Jenny Drife in telling Keir Starmer that he has a choice to make: act now to end street discharge or continue to watch as people's lives are put at risk: pathway.eaction.org.uk/openletter #ASafePlaceToRecover

Having a safe place to recover in dignity should be the standard for everyone who is discharged from hospital. Join Dr Ben Jameson in calling on the Government to end the practice of discharging people from hospital to the street: pathway.eaction.org.uk/openletter #ASafePlaceToRecover

[1/3] 🚨 New report published: People facing homelessness need specialist intermediate care after hospital — not a discharge back to the streets. We know it works. So why is provision still so low? 🧵👇

We’re thrilled with the design of The Pathway Garden showing at #RHSChelsea2025 💚 Inspired by insights of colleagues who have journeyed from homelessness to better health, the garden represents their journey to safety and recovery. (1/2)

📢 We need your help 📢 Too many people are discharged from hospital to the street. This is an inhumane and dangerous way to treat people recovering from illness. It is also inefficient, contributing to the revolving door of hospital readmissions. (1/2)

We were delighted to meet @rushanaraalibgs.bsky.social MP, Minister for Rough Sleeping and Homelessness, to discuss the critical role of healthcare in preventing and ending homelessness. (1/3)

1/2 Yesterday, our Mental Health & Occupational Therapy Lead, Sophie Koehne, was delighted to co-lead @kingscollegelondon.bsky.social’s latest webinar in their excellent series - Homelessness, Capacity & Executive Function: An Occupational Therapy lens.

1/2 We want to once again say a huge thank you to all of the new and returning faces who attended our Faculty for Homeless and Inclusion Health Conference this year, both for your attendance and your invaluable participation!

It was a pleasure to hold a session at the @homelesslink.bsky.social Rough Sleeping conference today, talking about health and homelessness with Peter Moore of @oxfordshirecc.bsky.social. So many people's homelessness can be resolved with evidence-based healthcare.

#InclusionHealth2025 We had a great time at UK Pathways conference on Homelessness and Inclusion Health. I felt fortunate to attend a book launch celebrating my new book ~ Pretreatment Across Multiple Fields of Practice: Trauma Informed Approach to Homelessness and Beyond More info: jayslevy.com
