Draft Homelessness and Rough Sleeping Strategy 2025-28
Overview
As Local Housing Authorities, South Oxfordshire and the Vale of White Horse District Councils have a legal requirement to publish a joint homelessness and rough sleeping strategy. Our last strategy covered the period 2020-25. We would now like to hear your views on the proposed objectives of our new draft Homelessness and Rough Sleeping Strategy 2025-28.
The 2025-2028 joint draft strategy sets out our vision and commitment to preventing homelessness and rough sleeping in the districts. It provides an overview of the scale and cause of the problem, and indicates how we aim to tackle it at a local level.
Please complete this consultation by 11.59pm on Monday 16 June 2025.
If you have any questions about this consultation or require it in an alternative format (for example large print, Braille, audio, Easy Read and alternative languages), please email housing@southandvale.gov.uk or call 01235 422442.
What happens next?
Once the consultation has closed, we will review and consider all the comments received. Your feedback will help us to finalise the joint Homelessness and Rough Sleeping Strategy 2025-2028. The final strategy will be presented to South Oxfordshire and the Vale of White Horse District Councils' Cabinet briefings in September, and to full Council meeting in October 2025. We will publish the new strategy on our websites by the end of 2025: South / Vale. A report summarising the findings of this consultation will also be produced and published on our website.
