Look Ahead win Andy Ludlow Homelessness Award 2006
Look Ahead Housing and Care has been presented with the first prize in the Andy Ludlow Homelessness Award 2006 at a special ceremony organised by London Councils.
The housing charity’s Customer Involvement Programme – based in Kensington and Chelsea – saw off the challenge of five other short listed projects to collect the £10,000 top prize.
The award ceremony was addressed by keynote speaker the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, Ruth Kelly MP, making her first speech on homelessness since taking up her position.
Look Ahead Housing and Care received its prize from Channel 4 presenter Amanda Lamb, at a ceremony at the London Design Museum. It becomes the eighth winner of the annual Andy Ludlow Homelessness Awards.
The awards are organised by London Councils to highlight good practice and innovative ways of tackling and reducing homelessness across the capital. They are supported by Shelter, London Housing Foundation and the Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG).
