flag Severe homelessness in England rose to nearly 300,000 in 2024, prompting a charity to buy 1,000 homes to address the crisis.

flag A new report by UK charity Crisis reveals nearly 300,000 people in England faced severe homelessness in 2024, a 21% increase since 2022 and 45% since 2012, with many living in temporary or unsafe accommodations. flag The charity says official figures undercount the crisis due to strict eligibility rules, and it is launching a major initiative to become a landlord, buying and managing at least 1,000 homes in London and Newcastle to provide stable housing. flag This move follows rising demand, soaring emergency housing costs, and a lack of government action despite a promised cross-departmental strategy.
