A homeless charity has said the number of people accessing its services is the highest it has ever been.
St Petrocs said it had supported 153 people who were sleeping on Cornwall's streets in October - a 35% increase on the same month in 2024.
The charity has launched its winter campaign early due to the freezing temperatures and will be rapidly rehoming people between November 2025 and February 2026, it said.
Lois Wild, director of engagement at St Petrocs, said: "We are seeing such high numbers of people sleeping rough at the moment, the figures are really staggering."
