Cost of housing homeless people in temporary accommodation soars to £2.8bn Councils in England are paying £2.8bn a year to house homelessness families in temporary accommodation as homelessness crisis deepens.

England local councils paid £2.8bn for temporary accommodation for homeless people.

131,140 households in temporary accommodation, including 169,050 homeless children.

Result of low income/benefits, profiteering, high housing costs.

What if £2.8bn was used to build social housing?
