Organisations tackling homelessness and working with homeless people in London are
invited to apply for a share of £25,000 available from the London Councils Andy 
Ludlow Homeless Awards 2007.
The awards are open to registered social landlords,
housing and social service departments, NHS trusts and voluntary organisations in
London. The winner will receive £10,000, with £5,000 going to each of the three 
runners-up.

The Andy Ludlow Awards recognise projects that improve services to homeless people,
prevent homelessness, or tackle disadvantage caused by homelessness.

The awards are run by London Councils and funded by all 33 London councils together
with sponsorship from Communities and Local Government, the London Housing Foundation,
and Shelter.

and Chelsea-based scheme which provides temporary accommodation and support for 
homeless people through 72 supported housing projects.

The closing date for entries is 4 June 2007.
