Description

The housing crisis is disproportionately affecting the elderly, with a significant increase in homelessness and temporary housing situations. Charities report a surge in older adults seeking emergency aid, often with serious health issues. Council budget cuts and a lack of social housing are cited as major contributors. Personal stories, like Raymonds, highlight the harsh realities of this hidden crisis. As the government delays its long-term housing plan, charities urge prioritizing older renters to prevent further escalation.
