In January last year there was an estimated 210 people rough sleeping in Letchworth, Hitchin and Baldock.
Reflecting on the situation in North Herts, Councillor Sean Prendergast, deputy executive member for housing, said: “Since the beginning of the pandemic we have worked continually to make sure that anyone in North Herts who found themselves homeless and living on the streets, was offered accommodation and assistance to ensure their health and safety during this hugely difficult time.
"The long-term aim is to resettle these residents in their own accommodation, primarily in the private rented sector, helping to prevent individuals and families from ending up back on the streets.
