MOVES to stop coronavirus from spreading among homeless rough sleepers has led to a huge effort to bring people in off the streets over the last year. The efforts as part of a national Government-backed initiative called Everyone In has housed approximately 30,000 people across the UK. But it fell to local hands to sort out how this scheme would play out. Now, one of the people leading Oxford’s effort to help the homeless avoid Covid has spoken about the challenges of the task throughout 2020. Paul Wilding, Oxford City Council’s Rough Sleeping and Single Homelessness Manager, said Everyone In has had a huge impact on preventing homelessness in the city, and may have led to the ‘hidden’ homeless seeking help.
