SWEP and Winter Provision Toolkit

Homeless Link has developed resources for local authorities, frontline homelessness services, and faith and community groups to provide additional support to anyone sleeping rough when the weather becomes colder. 

The SWEP and Winter Provision Toolkit is designed to support organisations to provide SWEP responses in order to prevent deaths of people sleeping rough during the winter. It also contains guidance for organisations who are setting up winter provision, including suggested accommodation models. 

The Key considerations for planning SWEP and winter provision document contains a series of questions to help local authorities and voluntary organisations think about what is needed prior to agreeing protocols/accommodation arrangements.
