Homelessness is reaching record highs in the UK. The latest statistics on statutory homelessness show that in March 2023, 104,510 households – including over 131,000 children – were living in hotels, hostels, B&Bs and the like. But disabled people are particularly affected by homelessness…. While disabled people represent 22% of the overall population, a recent survey suggests they may represent up to 39% of the homeless population.
