Early prisoner releases may lead to homelessness
Hundreds of prisoners in England and Wales are being released early to reduce overcrowding, but many lack sufficient accommodation, increasing the risk of homelessness. About 2,000 offenders, including violent and domestic abusers, are due for release in the next month, with a further 3,000 in the following year. Probation services are struggling to find hostel beds, raising concerns that some may be released onto the streets without appropriate support.
