    Situation in nut shell

    • City of Edinburgh Council places homeless in hotels when it reaches capacity of its own temporary accodmation spaces
    • When the Council books these rooms it’s for a duration of 7 days
    • Hotels have jacked up room prices for Taylor Swift fan bookings.
    • City council can’t afford these higher room prices and has to place locals in different cities such as Aberdeen and Newcastle.
    • This creates problem for homeless people should they need to attend appointments in the edinburgh area.
