The scandal: Peterborough City Council has been significantly misreporting its homelessness figures, presenting data that paints a far rosier picture than reality on the ground. For a city where people sleep rough every night, this is not a minor error - it's a failure of accountability to our most vulnerable community members.
We've heard directly from people experiencing homelessness that the support systems supposedly in place are not reaching them. We want to understand why and work together to fix it.
We won't stop until we get answers and ensure the council takes action. We'll go hard, but respectfully - because we genuinely want to work with the council to make this happen, whether through our input, collaboration, or holding them accountable.
