By: Karen Purewal , Director of Services In some of our smaller housing units which houses clients with mental health, we have set up WhattsApp accounts and allowed the clients to access the business WIFI and staff are taking to people daily through this media
By: Ian Southall-Payne , Rough Sleepers Initiative Project Worker Ian S-P Action Homeless Leicester - I think inter-agency working and cooperation in leicester is good anyway but this whole situation appears to have made most people more concerned for each other. Emails, calls, texts are allowing workers like myself who are self isolating to continue supporting clients and we have provided mobiles for clients without. Inter-agency contacts and relationships mean that even if I can't physically assist a client with say food parcel I can arrange for a colleague, whether from Action Homeless or other agencies to support this. Clients are being proactive in some cases and alerting me to newly set up Facebook Mutual aid groups which increases the opportunities to actually respond positively to client need even though I am stuck at home for the next 11 weeks!
