Telford & Wrekin Council and Shropshire Council have each received more than £3.6m from the Government to tackle homelessness and rough sleeping since 2018/19.

The figures emerged after Wrekin MP, Mark Pritchard, asked a parliamentary question to the Ministers for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities.

Eddie Hughes, Minister for Rough Sleeping and Housing, responded as follows:

"Over £3.6 million funding has been allocated to Shropshire Council to tackle homelessness and rough sleeping since 2018-19.

"Furthermore, over £3.6 million funding has been allocated to Telford and Wrekin Council to tackle homelessness and rough sleeping since 2018-19.

"Overall, the Government has committed over £800 million to tackle homelessness and rough sleeping this year, further demonstrating the Government's commitment to end rough sleeping this Parliament and fully enforce the Homelessness Reduction Act."
