Really moving exhibition in Parliament this week by Anthony Luvera & Households in Temporary Accommodation APPG on the reality faced by those living for often indefinite periods in unsuitable/cramped Temporary Accommodation. Govt must end this scandal: build the social and affordable homes our communities need.

There's still time today for MPs and Peers to visit our exhibition in the Upper Waiting Hall.

We would love to engage leaders from all parties about the crisis of homeless families.

A really important exhibition in Parliament this week by Anthony Luvera & Households in Temporary Accommodation APPG on the hardship faced by the 109,000 households currently stuck in cramped Temporary Accommodation.

With over 140,000 children living without a safe & secure home, it’s clear we are in a crisis.

Powerful Households in Temporary Accommodation APPG exhibition shows impact of #temporaryhousing & we know #Section21 evictions play key role in its soaring use. Today Tories could end #Section21 , instead #RentersReformBill watered down to appease landlord lobby. A Labour Govt will act where Tories have failed.

Powerful & touching exhibition by Households in Temporary Accommodation APPG Anthony Luvera at UK House of Commons. Left with lots to think about & actions to take. Hardship & resiliency of these families extend beyond pictures. Thankyou for sharing your stories with the world; I hope we are stirred to bring change.

This week, I visited the Households in Temporary Accommodation APPG exhibition on 'Families in Temporary Accommodation' featuring Anthony Luvera's impactful work.

It is crucial we work to improve the health and wellbeing of those in temporary housing, especially the 142,490 children across the country.

Chair: Siobhain McDonagh MP

142,000 children in temporary accommodation across the country. In London, that's one in 23 children. One child in every classroom.

Our chair @siobhain_mc on LBC with Shelagh Fogarty discussing why we need to go further to support homeless families.

Proud to support the vital work Siobhain McDonagh MP and the Households in Temporary Accommodation APPG yesterday. Daniel Hewitt is right- it's hard to think of a more pressing issue than the deaths of homeless children in temporary accommodation.

More needs to be done to tackle this tragic, avoidable loss of life.

Last night Daniel Hewitt broke the news that 55 children have died in temporary accommodation.

Today we visited Downing Street to hand in our petition and urge the government to set up a Homeless Families Task Force to tackle the issue of child mortality head on.

Today we found out that 55 homeless children died between 2019 and 2023 because of the temporary accommodation they were housed in.

42 of the children were under 1...

The most likely cause of death is that they did not have access to a cot
