Join over 100 charities campaigning for a strategy to end youth homelessness
In 2022-23 135,800 16–25-year-olds presented at their local authority as homeless or at risk of homelessness. Many young people experiencing homelessness remain hidden, not showing up in the data, so this figure could easily be double and with COVID and the cost-of-living crisis, it’s getting worse.
Covid changed everything, but certain truths remain; far too many young people in the UK find themselves unhoused, unsupported and unsafe. We desperately need a #PlanForThe136k.
