Bradford is to receive £100,000 from government in a bid to tackle homelessness.
Bradford is one of the successful bidders in Yorkshire for a grant to help those who are homeless, or at risk of becoming homeless, to secure their own tenancy – such as paying deposits for the tenancy or putting down the first month’s rent.
Bradford, Kirklees and Barnsley Councils will share £369,198 to tackle the issue, which the government says will help up to 400 households across Yorkshire and the Humber.
The announcement forms part of the Government’s Rough Sleeping Strategy which is backed by £100m funding.
