Concerned about someone sleeping rough
Report an adult sleeping rough
Send an alert on StreetLink to report an adult sleeping rough.
StreetLink will ask for:
- the specific location of the rough sleeping site
- the time you saw the rough sleeper
- any information to help identify them (gender, approximate age, appearance, clothing).
If you saw the rough sleeper in Slough, StreetLink will send us the details. For other areas of the UK, they will contact the local homeless outreach services.
Your information helps outreach services find and support the individual.
StreetLink will inform you about the usual actions taken by local authorities when someone is reported sleeping rough. If you requested an update, you can get details on what happened as a result of your alert.
Please do not make an alert if the person is begging or engaging in anti-social behaviour and if they are not rough sleeping. You can report antisocial behaviour through this site.
Report a young person sleeping rough
If you think the person is under 18, please call the police on 999.
