“Invaluable” Roger’s Court provides temporary accommodation for rough sleepers
Last night the Housing Committee received an update on the success of Roger's Court after its first year of operation. The building was commissioned and opened in August 2021 by Bedford Borough Council providing 20 units of high quality, self-contained accommodation for people who were sleeping rough. Committee members heard that Roger's Court has been "extremely effective at enabling residents at very high risk of homelessness and rough sleeping to maintain a tenancy in good quality and safe accommodation".
