Abstract
This report is designed to support and inform a parallel study conducted by the King’s Fund and the University of York on health and care services for people sleeping rough, which is in turn designed to support the implementation of the 2018 Rough Sleeper Strategy. Four one-hour focus groups were conducted in four areas in England, nominated by the Department of Health and Social Care. The focus groups involved 23 people with lived experience of sleeping rough. The firs section provides a brief background to the issues, followed by findings of the focus groups, which explored different aspects of respondents’ experience of accessing and using health and care services while sleeping rough. The final section provides a discussion of the results.
