Refugee homelessness and migrant destitution are rising at an alarming rate, NACCOM's research shows.

A record high of 1,941 refugee adults were homeless in 2023-24 - an increase of *99%* on last year:

NEW: Over 200,000 households impacted by No Recourse to Public Funds (NRPF) are at risk of destitution.

NRPF denies people access to a safety net, even in times of crisis, & disproportionately impacts women.

This report underlines what we already know - NRPF devastates lives and must be scrapped.

Government told to loosen rules preventing migrants claiming benefits Thousands of migrants - including some who were encouraged to come to fill skills shortages - are living in poverty as they can’t access benefits

Almost 37,000 migrant households in London are living in poverty because they are affected by NRPF - and a further 120,000 are “at risk of destitution”.

Great to see coverage of our new research (out today) into the impacts of no recourse to public funds - www.standard.co.uk/news/politic...
