Everyone deserves to live in safety and with dignity as they wait for a home.

But many people with disabilities are living in temporary accommodation that limits their independence and does not meet their basic needs. This needs to change.

Our new research project, led by people with lived experience, will examine temporary accommodation through the lens of intersectionality.

Councils have long been warning that the cost of temporary accommodation is pushing them closer to bankruptcy.

With demand soaring and resources dwindling, we take a look how we can get a grip on this escalating crisis: justlife.org.uk/news/2024/temp…

People experiencing homelessness face significant barriers to accessing health services, which can drive an intensive use of A&E.

Ep.2 of our podcast explores how we support people to access care before their health declines to a crisis point.

People experiencing homelessness should be supported, not criminalised. Instead of threatening people with police action, the government should be examining the real solutions: building affordable homes and investing in person-centred support services.

It is a sign of a broken system that we treat people experiencing homelessness in hospital and then send them back into the environment that made them sick.

Proud to be part of the Faculty for Homeless & Inclusion Health who are speaking up about this.

Thanks for sharing! This article is all about how we at D&A choose to talk about ourselves. A reminder that language around identity is always a personal choice! 💜 We won't ever police others' choices on how they share their identity.
