NACCOM members including Homeless Link have recently launched the āHosting Toolkitā, a comprehensive guide for schemes accommodating destitute asylum seekers, refugees and other migrants. The resource has been developed in response to growth in hosting provision across the UK (particularly over the last 2 years) and is designed to be a practical guide both for people exploring hosting for the first time and for existing schemes wanting to learn from others. You can find the toolkitĀ hereĀ and partners are encouraged to share with their networks and promote on social media using #hostingtoolkit.Ā Homeless Link have published a feature blog on their website, guest written by Vicki Harris from Action Hosting in Newcastle. You can read the blogĀ here.
