As Hobart’s homeless crisis worsens, Hobart City Mission Chief Executive John Stubley says it is now time “for us to dig deep into our coffers and give it back into the community”.
Due to the reality of homelessness and the current crisis in the Hobart rental housing market, the Salvation Army and Hobart City Mission have banded together to create a safe night space to provide emergency relief.
“Going into last winter it was a real shock to the Hobart community to see people on the street corner begging or sleeping in shop fronts,” he said.
“We had literally not seen that before in Hobart”.
Mr Stubley told Sky News host Paul Murray the Hobart City Mission supports over “2,000 people a year who come to (their) front door who literally don’t have any food to eat,” and any financial help enables them to provide “more emergency assistance”.
“Casual employees who a month ago, or three months ago thought their job was secure and their cash flow was fine, are suddenly going to find they’ve got no food on the table,” he said.
“There’s nothing more fundamental than not being able to feed yourself”.
Harvey Norman in Hobart was able to assist the Hobart City Mission along with Anglicare Tasmania, and the Hobart Women’s Shelter by raising $22,458 in a silent auction to help fight the city’s homeless problem.

Maybe now people aren't travelling, perhaps Airbnb owners will lease out their properties to long term locals.

Our aussie govt need to quota the number of houses the foreigners are allowed to buy in any districts or neighbourhoods. Im a migrant myself in australia. Took me 7-9 years to get full citizenship. But i got the shock when buying homes in brisbane. A family from china throwing money to buy 5 homes in 1 street alone. Oh common! Gives priority to the fellow aussies first, they need homes more urgently. Our govt should tax heavily on these kind throwing money around buying everything like theres no tomorrow foreigners who cant even speak basic english. They dont even willing to shed blood to defend this awesome country but just to take advantage of our weak system and govt. Im so disgusted and buy home somewhere else knowing the ratio is 1:20 whereby i know im not surrounded by chinese people from china or even north indian in my neighbourhood but instead by pure australian.

Wow. These people pay good money for houses down there? I thought living in Tassie was their job and the house was a perk!

If I lived in Hobart I would consider myself homeless even if I had a 5 bedder, with triple garage and a damn pool house.
