As part of the build up to Pathways from Homelessness 2022 we have a special programme recorded earlier today now available to view on demand.
John Adlam and Christopher Scanlon, the authors of a new book out this month, explore the impacts on individuals of homelessness – the deep scars that remain and contribute to many of the failures to reintegrate and house people who have experienced homelessness.
Bringing new perspectives on how to recognise and tackle psycho-social issues that so often surround the challenges of dealing with homelessness. John and Christopher are joined in this programme by Olivia Butterworth from NHS England in the Chair with comment from Dr Nigel Hewitt, Medical Director, Pathway.
