A new study has been launched to examine the provision of local authority services to Veterans across the capital.
The research, conducted by Kent University and London Veterans Advisory and Pensions Committee (VAPC) will help provide more evidence into the number of ex-service personnel that are homeless and what services are being offered to them.
It will also explore to what extent the local connection rule is being used by local authorities in London in relation to Veterans, and how vulnerability as a result of being in the services is assessed.
Professor Carr said: ‘We are very excited to be able to undertake this research for the VAPC and are keen to find examples of best practice in this area.
'We are also looking forward to exploring the impact of the recent Supreme Court decision on the meaning of vulnerability as part of this research.’
