I'm meant to be writing a council scrutiny paper on rough sleeping, but Shelter have published a paper on domestic abuse and homelessness. It's relevant, so I'm not technically procrastinating. Shelter's research is valuable, not just on this issue but on homelessness in general. They found 9% of homelessness linked to DA issues, which doesn't surprise me at all.
@OldBrushNewPaper Well, there comes a point where deep research shades into procrastination, when you know enough to write a thing and need to just get down and write it. There is an astonishing amount of reading around homelessness available at the moment, partly unfortunately due to there being too much homelessness in the UK right now.
