Powerful Households in Temporary Accommodation APPG exhibition shows impact of #temporaryhousing & we know #Section21 evictions play key role in its soaring use. Today Tories could end #Section21 , instead #RentersReformBill watered down to appease landlord lobby. A Labour Govt will act where Tories have failed.
A really important exhibition in Parliament this week by Anthony Luvera & Households in Temporary Accommodation APPG on the hardship faced by the 109,000 households currently stuck in cramped Temporary Accommodation.
With over 140,000 children living without a safe & secure home, it’s clear we are in a crisis.
Powerful & touching exhibition by Households in Temporary Accommodation APPG Anthony Luvera at UK House of Commons. Left with lots to think about & actions to take. Hardship & resiliency of these families extend beyond pictures. Thankyou for sharing your stories with the world; I hope we are stirred to bring change.
Our CEO, Dr Laura Neilson, spoke to Housing Studies Association today about the effects on health of temporary housing. And how gathering academic evidence and telling the story can bring change. Households in Temporary Accommodation APPG

⚠️ The Department for Work and Pensions has today released its Households Below Average Income statistics, which show that child poverty has reached a record high – with 4.3 million children in the UK now below the poverty line.
Thank you Andrew Western MP for bringing the crisis of homeless families to Parliament this week.
55 children have died in TA and the government needs to tackle this head on by setting up a Homeless Families taskforce.
A sudden move into Temporary Accommodation can cause a lot of uncertainty, especially if the property is not fit for purpose.
