In the North West, homelessness is on the rise and has increased by 15% since 2024.

We recently partnered with Light for Life Sefton which hosts a range of services to combat homelessness, including a rough sleeper service that actively secures accommodation for people sleeping on the streets.

Over just six months into our partnership to reach those left behind, 100% of our patients received a nurse-led medication review within seven days of registration and A&E attendances fell by approximately 80%.

“We do this simply because it is the right thing to do: breaking down inequalities so vulnerable people have equal access to the healthcare they need.” - Hannah Rahmani, Head of Nursing.
