Have Glasgow City Council follow the lead of Manchester and open up empty buildings for homeless people this winter.

To plead to the Council to open its empty buildings to the homeless in winter. I cannot imagine sleeping rough in driving, biting winds, snow, ice and winter rain. It's inhumane. It's also inexcusable when we have so many empty buildings.

In the winter of 2015/16, Glasgow City Mission recorded that they were full to capacity on 32 occasions- a situation that has previously never happened. Clearly there is a growing and worrying trend of street homelessness in Glasgow.
