The Cymorth Cymru team sends our deepest condolences to Hefin’s family and friends during this awful time.

Incredibly sad news about Hefin David, who was a vocal supporter of the Stolen Lives campaign to stop people with a learning disability and/or autism being placed in inappropriate hospital settings, and instead bring them home to live in the community. Your voice will be missed. Rest in peace, Hefin

#EvolvingInvolving

👍 Our Director @katiedalton.bsky.social has welcomed the publication of the Bill, calling it a landmark day for people who want to see an end to homelessness in Wales.

👏 Katie has also paid tribute to the 300+ people with experience of homelessness who have played a huge part in shaping this Bill.

The Bill aims to transform the response to homelessness in Wales through:
⌛ Earlier prevention and support
⛔ Removal of barriers that stop people accessing help
🤝 Coordinated response from public services
🏡 Improved access to social housing
🧒 Better support for young people leaving care

👍 Cymorth Cymru welcomes groundbreaking new Homelessness Bill
