Moderator calls on time on homelessness
A new national strategy to tackle the 'demoralising, degrading and dehumanising' blight of homelessness must be introduced in Scotland, the Moderator of the Church of Scotland has said.
In a keynote speech the Right Rev Dr Russell Barr called on a collective partnership of local authorities, political parties, housing associations and the charity sector to be formed to end rough sleeping and temporary accommodation.
