HOMELESS AGENCY: Cheap alcohol has created problems for Trust, the homeless agency, and has meant it must continue restrictions on its “open door”, in place since 2009.
According to its annual report, published this week, “in 2011 the very obvious increased easy availability of high-alcohol content products in supermarkets and eastern European shops added to at times unpredictable behaviour of some people using the services of Trust.
“This obviously led to increased potential for violence. Alcohol hand-wash from hospitals also emerged as an easy available source.”
