Community Intervention Team

Community Intervention Team

The BID, in partnership with The Passage, provide the Community Intervention Team (CIT). The CIT is a dedicated daytime street engagement team consisting of three experienced outreach workers that cover the BID footprint.

The team look for, and support, individuals sleeping rough in the area in order for them to move away from being involved in detrimental street activity and find a route off the streets, in close collaboration with local homelessness services.

• Over the past year, as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the BID and the CIT have been pivotal in directing individuals into temporary accommodation.
