Details
The annual autumn snapshot is our official and most robust measure of rough sleeping on a single night given they are independently verified, it provides information about the estimated number of people sleeping rough on a single night between 1 October and 30 November each year and some basic demographics details (age, gender, nationality). These statistics provide a way of estimating the number of people sleeping rough across England on a single night and assessing change over time.
In May 2023, the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government launched a new framework with a new set of metrics to better understand how far rough sleeping is prevented wherever possible, and where it does occur, if it is rare, brief, and non-recurring. This was developed with Centre for Homelessness Impact and 5 pilot areas (London, Greater Manchester, Newcastle, West Midlands and Bournemouth, Christchurch, and Poole). The information in the release is management information not official statistics.
