Thanks Shared Health Foundation & brilliant speakers for an inspiring & thought provoking conference on terrible impact of homelessness & living in temporary accommodation on families & children & for making sure their voices are heard.

Thank you everyone that came to the very first Homeless Families Conference. Andy Burnham Prof Katherine Brickell Emma Bimpson The Magpie Project Focused Care + more! We ended by holding up a pair of tiny shoes that represent all the babies that have died in Temporary Accommodation.

Our Doctors in Deprivation Conference last week was a huge success bringing together GPs from all over GM and beyond to talk about how to do great medicine in the most deprived neighbourhoods. Deep End GP Scotland DeepEndGM Deep End Ireland Deep End NENC Deep End GP YH

Housing is grossly underreported given its size and significance. The next govt inherits a housing crisis on multiple levels. However costly or complex this is why it needs to be dealt with. At least 55 children have died in temporary accommodation since 2019 (March 2024). 1/3

Congratulations Angela Rayner on your appointment. We look forward to working with you to end child homelessness

Great to hear homeless families being mentioned on BBC Radio 4 Today. We look forward to seeing how the new government will champion the rights of all homeless children.

Amazing compassionate care from our colleagues at Focused Care. An absolute integral part of the Primary Care Team working in areas of deprivation in Greater Manchester.

127,000 interactions! Focused Care making every contact count

GPs often don’t see deprivation until they’re qualified, when they’re suddenly responsible for deciphering and untangling it every day with their patients. I wrote about the only UK training course trying to change that Shared Health Foundation

Head over to our YouTube channel to watch the presentations from our Homeless Families Conference in June. We dare to hope that things can and will get better for homeless families living in temporary accommodation. youtube.com/playlist?list=…

There are 151,630 homeless children in Temporary Accommodation. This cannot go on. It is time to work together to end all forms of homelessness for good.

There is less funding and poorer health outcomes in areas of deprivation. Our colleagues at Focused Care work specifically to improve the health outcomes for the communities that need it the most.
