A report from Leeds City Council officers into so-called "street users" says ambulances were called 183 times in three months to drug and alcohol-related incidents and incidents connected to homelessness in the city centre.

Six rough sleepers in the city centre are known to have died in the past 18 months and there are now thought to be at least 200 street users in the city centre.

The report recommends the council should set up a street support team, which it's hoped will cut the number of rough sleepers, protect people in need and tackle issues such as begging.
