4) The Homelessness, Rough Sleeping and Domestic Abuse Grant is made up of three core functions: Homelessness and Rough Sleeping, Domestic Abuse Safe Accommodation, and targeted funding for supported housing support services. However, the grant can be spent flexibly between these functions, within the overall ringfence and in accordance with the conditions below. The following paragraphs have been split out into these functions.
5) A guidance document, published here accompanies this Grant Determination Letter to provide greater detail on how funding can be spent to prevent homelessness and reduce rough sleeping. Local authorities should consider the guidance document and engage with their MHCLG homelessness and rough sleeping advisers when designing and delivering services.
Homelessness and Rough Sleeping
6) This funding is flexible for local authorities to determine the most effective services and support, driven by local need, to get local areas back on track to ending homelessness. The purpose of this grant is to support local authorities in England to:
a. Discharge their duties under the Housing Act 1996, as set out in the Homelessness Code of Guidance for local authorities, and provide support for rough sleeping. This includes costs towards prevention, relief and main duty activities and staffing – except for costs directly related to temporary accommodation (see paragraph 6d). Funding is expected to deliver support to all individuals who are facing homelessness – including single homeless households in non-priority need and delivering rough sleeping services that are driven by assessment of an individual’s support needs.
b. Deliver against local homelessness strategies and the metrics in the Local Outcomes Framework, as set out in A National Plan to End Homelessness (section 7.2), which are:
I. Rate of households with children in temporary accommodation per 1,000 households
II. Number of families in Bed & Breakfast over 6 weeks
III. Percentage of duties owed where homelessness was prevented or relieved
IV. Percentage of duties owed where homelessness was prevented or relieved for those experiencing multiple disadvantage (with 3 or more support needs)
V. Number of people sleeping rough on a single night
VI. Number of people sleeping rough over the month who are long-term
c. Focus on early intervention and maximising prevention activities. This includes working with landlords to support households retain private rented tenancies and reduce reliance upon temporary accommodation - particularly reducing the use of unsuitable B&Bs for families. Maximising prevention also includes effective engagement and collaboration with voluntary, community and frontline sector partners, including faith organisations, and ensuring that support is driven by assessment of the needs of individuals.
d. This grant may not be spent on costs directly related to temporary accommodation, which include:
I. Actual (net) temporary accommodation costs
II. Temporary accommodation rent
III. Temporary accommodation subsidy loss
IV. Payment of bad debt related to temporary accommodation
V. Maintenance costs of temporary accommodation (Maintenance is routine and should be factored into the cost of temporary accommodation. It is different to investment to improve quality of life for people in temporary accommodation. See bullet XI under exceptions in the next paragraph)
VI. Payment of arrears of temporary accommodation
VII. Incentive payments towards temporary accommodation
VIII. Any upfront costs of temporary accommodation – deposits or rent in advance costs.
The exceptions to paragraph 6d above are:
IX. Where temporary accommodation has already been provided through Section 189B or Section 190(2) of the Housing Act 1996, local authorities may use this grant to continue to provide temporary accommodation for a period of one year from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027.
X. Local authorities may use this grant to provide supported housing / supported accommodation, Housing First and housing-led models as part of a designated housing pathway out of homelessness and rough sleeping.
XI. Local authorities may use this fund for the costs of temporary accommodation improvement and inspection of standards.
Domestic abuse
7) The purpose of this funding is to support local authorities in meeting their statutory duties under Part 4 of the Domestic Abuse Act 2021, relating to the provision of support for all victims of domestic abuse including their children, within ‘relevant’ accommodation (as defined by the Domestic Abuse Support (Relevant Accommodation and Housing Benefit and Universal Credit Sanctuary Schemes) (Amendment) Regulations 2021).
a) Local authorities must have regard to the statutory guidance issued to support the implementation of the duty when commissioning services, including seeking to ensure that support is delivered by knowledgeable and/or experienced specialist providers, charities, and other voluntary organisations whose purpose is to support victims of domestic abuse. The guidance is available at: Domestic abuse support within safe accommodation - GOV.UK
b)The grant only covers revenue expenditure relating to the functions set out in Part 4 of the Act on Tier 1 local authorities relating to the provision of accommodation-based support to victims of domestic abuse and their children residing in safe accommodation and on Tier 2 local authorities to co-operate with Tier 1 local authorities as far as reasonably practicable.
c) Where it has been agreed to delegate commissioning decisions to Tier 2 local authorities, Tier 1 local authorities should ensure adequate funding is passed to Tier 2 local authorities.
Targeted funding for supported housing support services
8) The purpose of this funding is to support selected local authorities in receipt of this additional funding, in the commissioning of support services and to increase the supply of good quality supported housing. Priority should be placed on single homelessness prevention and relief as well as preventing and reducing rough sleeping, but with flexibility to support other vulnerable groups in supported housing, including disabled and older people in longer term housing. Authorities in receipt of this specific funding are encouraged to use it to unlock the delivery of supported housing through the Social and Affordable Homes Programme where feasible – though to ensure delivery, we are allowing flexibility to commission support services in existing accommodation schemes and to support the viability of existing stock to avoid decommissioning and disposal of vital good quality services.
9) This targeted funding is to fund support services. It may not be spent on accommodation or accommodation services (including housing management costs), such as the costs indicated below:
i. Actual (net) accommodation costs or accommodation-related service charges
ii. Rent
iii. Intensive housing management costs in supported housing
iv. Supported accommodation subsidy loss
v. Payment of bad debt related to supported accommodation
vi. Maintenance costs of supported accommodation
vii. Payment of arrears of supported accommodation
viii. Incentive payments towards supported accommodation
ix. Any upfront costs of supported accommodation – deposits or rent in advance costs.
Local authority reporting requirements
10) As a condition of this funding, grant recipients must engage with MHCLG and submit all required data on the Homelessness, Rough Sleeping and Domestic Abuse Grant during the funding period. These returns must be comprehensive, accurate, publishable and submitted within stated deadlines.
11) MHCLG will measure local authority delivery via the Local Outcomes Framework. Local authorities do not need to report separately on these framework metrics, as this information is captured in H-CLIC and Rough Sleeping Management Information data collection.
Local authority spend declaration
12) The Chief Executive or the authority’s Section 151 Officer of each of the grant recipients is required to sign and return to the HomelessnessandRoughSleepingFinanceTeam@communities.gov.uk at the Homelessness and Rough Sleeping Directorate of the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government, a declaration, to be received no later than 30 April 2027 a declaration, in the following terms;
To the best of our knowledge and belief, and having carried out appropriate investigations and checks, in our opinion, in all significant respects, the conditions attached to the Homelessness, Rough Sleeping and Domestic Abuse Grant (2026/27): No 31/8380 have been complied with.
13) Spend declaration categories are at Annex C. Further information on each area of spend is detailed in the supporting guidance. MHCLG may also require an estimate of spend to date and forecast outturn to be provided by first week of September.
Homelessness and rough sleeping Action Plans
14) As a condition of this funding, local authorities must have an Action Plan in line with paragraph 2.11 of the Homelessness Code of Guidance which must be published (except where specified below or in guidance) by Autumn 2026, and regularly updated. This Action Plan should comply with relevant guidance and include, at a minimum:
14.1 targets which, taking into account local context and the ambition set out in national targets, will improve performance against each of the homelessness and rough sleeping metrics in the Local Outcomes Framework by the end of the Parliament. Action Plans should include a description of how the local authority, working with partners, will achieve these targets.
14.2 local governance structures that hold authorities and partners accountable for delivering the plan.
14.3 how partnerships work across the local area to manage homelessness and rough sleeping pressures to shift from crisis response to a culture rooted in prevention.
14.4 Reference to specific plans where appropriate:
a) Bed & Breakfast Elimination Plans – where the published data shows a local authority has five or more families in B&B (bed and breakfast) accommodation for longer than 6 weeks, the local authority must produce and agree a B&B elimination plan. As it will contain sensitive information, this plan does not need to be published.
b) Long-Term Rough Sleeping Partnership Plans – areas with high levels of long-term rough sleeping, based on total numbers and/or proportions of total people sleeping rough, must produce and agree a Long-Term Rough Sleeping Partnership Plan. MHCLG homelessness and rough sleeping advisers will be in contact with those areas that this applies to.
14.5. policy for ensuring suitability of temporary accommodation, following an assessment, including procuring sufficient units of temporary accommodation and allocating them, which reflects the following:
a) The authority’s statutory duties, including to safeguard and promote the welfare of children under the Children Act 2004, and the factors which will be taken into account in offering accommodation within the authority, close to the authority or further away, pursuant to Nzolameso v City of Westminster.
b) the action it will take to mitigate disruption of support and essential services where relevant, and to ensure temporary accommodation is always suitable as set out under Section 210 of the Housing Act 1996 and Chapter 17 of the Homelessness Code of Guidance – including ensuring that accommodation is of a suitable quality. This includes being free of Category 1 hazards as set out in the Housing Health and Safety Rating System.
Homelessness Case Level Information Collection (H-CLIC) data
15) Local authorities must submit a quarterly H-CLIC return. These returns must be comprehensive, accurate, publishable and submitted within stated deadlines.
Rough sleeping data
16) Local authorities must submit their rough sleeping management information as part of the established Rough Sleeping Data Framework, which collects data on metrics to better understand how far rough sleeping is prevented wherever possible, and where it does occur, whether it is rare, brief, and non-recurring. Local authorities must also complete their annual snapshot every autumn, independently quality assured by Homeless Link. Rough sleeping data returns must be comprehensive, accurate, publishable and submitted within stated deadlines.
Homelessness and rough sleeping adviser engagement
17) Throughout the reporting period, local authorities must work collaboratively with their MHCLG homelessness and rough sleeping advisers to ensure delivery of successful outcomes defined in paragraph 6-9.
Domestic abuse management information
18) Tier 1 authorities must report back to MHCLG on the exercise of their functions in Part 4 as laid out in section 59 (2) of the Domestic Abuse Support (Local Authority Strategies and Annual Reports) Regulations 2021.
19) Tier 1 authorities will need to complete and submit an annual report as soon as reasonably practicable after the end of each financial year to MHCLG via Delta. MHCLG would expect this to be within three months following the end of the financial year and therefore expect reports to be submitted by 30 June 2027.
20) The information provided as part of these reports will need to demonstrate how local authorities have executed the functions required under the duty. The data and information currently collected by MHCLG is divided into two parts.
21) Part 1 focuses on financial and governance information, including:
a. a detailed breakdown on the local authority’s spending on safe accommodation services funded specifically through this Grant, and other sources.
b. confirmation that a Local Partnership Board has been established, including details of their memberships and meeting frequency
c. evidence that a needs assessment has been undertaken and updated
d. evidence that a local strategy is in place and working effectively. Authorities will need to demonstrate that strategies were published on time and detail how the approaches set out have supported victims accessing services within their area, through the data provided in Part 2.
22) Part 2 focuses on monitoring and outcomes, assessing whether local commissioning decisions have been informed by local needs assessments and strategies. In doing so Tier 1 authorities will need to provide data on number of victims supported, the number of bedspaces available, number of victims unable to access support and other relevant service delivery metrics.
23) Where appropriate, Tier 2 authorities should cooperate with tier 1 authorities in the completion of the annual report.
Targeted funding for supported housing support services reporting
24) Relevant selected authorities in receipt of this funding are expected to submit a short report as soon as reasonably practicable after the end of each financial year to MHCLG. MHCLG would expect this to be submitted by 30 June 2027.
25) The data and information submitted to MHCLG should include the following:
a. A detailed breakdown on the authority’s spending on supported housing support services funded specifically through this Grant and the number of individuals (full year equivalent) supported. Data on the number of individuals supported should include a break-down by cohort.
b. Evidence that the spending aligned with any local strategic needs assessment and any local supported housing strategy, including any administrative or geographical cross-boundary coordination or cooperation including at a sub-regional or regional level.
Compliance
26) Local authorities will be notified in writing by the department where they are judged to be in breach of the grant conditions and/ or reporting requirements. Notifications will be sent formally in writing by MHCLG officials or, where necessary, from the relevant Minister. Failure to comply or demonstrate improvement following formal notification may result in action taken as set out in paragraph 27.
27) If an authority fails to comply with any of the conditions and requirements of paragraphs 2 to 25 of this Annex, the Minister may:
a) reduce, suspend or withhold grant; or
b) by notification in writing to the authority, require the repayment of the whole or any part of the grant.
Any sum notified by the Minister shall immediately become repayable to the Minister.
28) As per the Homelessness Prevention Grant conditions in 2025/26, we are maintaining the penalty that failure to comply with the condition to submit H-CLIC may result in a recovery of up to 10% of in-year funding.
