You haven't included a submit button. And this...

HTML

<form action="mailto:XXX.XXX@example.com?subject=Rough Sleeper Alert" method="post" enctype="text/plain">

should be at the very top.

HTML elements are containers, they circumscribe their content.

CODE

<form action="...">
   <input...>
   <input...>
   <input...>
   <input type="submit">
</form>

See? FORM is the outer container for all the other form elements.
