Residents living in some east Leeds tower blocks feel like “prisoners” because of rough sleepers pitching up in communal areas, a meeting has been told.
Labour Coun Asghar Khan said the issue was leaving some council tenants feeling “unsafe” in the Burmantofts and Richmond Hill area he represents. Leeds City Council said it had widened its services to try to tackle the problem. Having fallen during the covid pandemic, the number of rough sleepers in Leeds is on the rise again, in line with other parts of the country.
“If a rough sleeper doesn’t want our services, what avenues do we have and where can they get help from other partners?” In response, council officer Kerrie Murray said the local authority had “increased” its support services because of “issues with rough sleepers, particularly around evenings and weekends”. She added: “The issue you mentioned around multi-storeys, that has been flagged up.
