National homelessness charities Crisis and St Mungo’s are teaming up for a third year to extend their hotel service in London into the new year.

The hotel provision, which provides each guest with a room along with a dedicated support worker and access to housing and benefit advice, will now run until 19th January.

The extension, funded by the Greater London Authority (GLA) and the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC), will see nearly 150 people supported.

‘Extending our hotel provision in London gives our guests, and the staff and volunteers they'll be working with, crucial extra time to work on practical and sustainable plans to end their homelessness,’ said Crisis chief executive Matt Downie.

‘In these extra weeks, guests will continue to receive tailored one-to-one support and will be provided with clear routes into year-round services on offer from organisations like Crisis.’
