100%....in the last 2+ years we have found ourselves "homeless" on and off, navigating our work via begging for spaces from organisations that own their own spaces and have a "spare room"...and being charged unrealistic amounts to rent or hire. Have we been exploited?.....MUCH!

Our dear friend @talatyaqoob , always telling it like it is...
Was on @STVNews last night explaining how l rhetoric and policy-making within politics (esp previous UK Govt) has legitimised the racism and xenophobia we are seeing on streets. ***mostly just watch for my strategically placed decor***

Lack of spaces for grassroots communities like ours severely impacts our ability to provide essential support to vulnerable people in Edinburgh. This infringes on human rights e.g. freedom of assembly, education, adequate housing. We need action to support charities on this.
