Criminalisation of homelessness: Information cards

Liberty has designed and produced information cards in collaboration with Streets Kitchen Legal to support people who are being criminalised, for example under ‘anti-social behaviour’ laws, for experiencing homelessness and poverty.

These cards provide:

  • basic legal information on police powers and your rights during interactions with police, security or council officers; and
  • contact details for Streets Kitchen Legal, who can provide you with practical and legal support.
