Andy Burnham is rallying a nationwide coalition to end rough sleeping before Christmas, arguing that government cash alone won’t cut it—councils, charities, and communities must all pitch in. With a fresh £100 million pledge and lessons from past programs like “A Bed Every Night,” he’s pushing for a coordinated effort after seeing numbers rise as people flocked to his area. The prime minister backs the plan, set to launch with a fall summit uniting business, faith, health, and charity leaders. With nearly 5,000 people sleeping rough last year—mostly in London—the stakes are high, and Burnham’s success will be measured by real, measurable progress.
