Everyone should be treated with respect when trying to access social housing – but Black people are more likely to be affected.

This form of systemic racism is often hidden below the surface and embedded within the housing system.

The government will subsidise private landlord's income by over £70bn - wow. 6 times the affordable housing budget! It's time to put our housing before landlords income #PeopleBeforeProfit #SocialHousing #BuildSocialHomes #EndTheHousingEmergency

Experiencing racism when trying to secure a social home leaves applicants feeling dehumanised.

No one should feel dehumanised when trying to find somewhere safe and secure to live. Black people and other People of Colour should be treated fairly and with respect when applying for social housing.
