POVERTY & HOMELESSNESS 23 images Created 1 Nov 2008
Homelessness includes: rough sleepers, hostels, bed and breakfasts, refuges and temporary accommodation.
In the first quarter of 2010, there were around 65,000 homeless households in temporary accommodation in Great Britain. The Government's official statistics show that homelessness is on the rise.
These figures will get worse as Government cuts, particularly to Housing Benefit, begin to kick in next year.
