There are many reasons why people are forced into homelessness such as lack of affordable housing, losing a job, mental health, leaving prison or the armed forces with no home to go to or escaping an abusive relationship.
There are many thousands of people facing or experiencing homelessness across the country today. Being ‘homeless’ can take many forms such as rough sleeping, people living in sheds, garages and other unconventional buildings, sofa surfing, hostels and unsuitable temporary accommodation such as B&Bs. (Ref: Crisis 2020)
In a country with the fifth largest economy, homelessness is a scandal – it is not acceptable. At Only A Pavement Away we are working hard to change this and with your help our impact can be even greater. Come see us at stand S129 to learn about the many ways you can get involved and support us.
