Official homelessness has increased 34 per cent in the last three years – a period that coincides with the start of the recession – and reverses the previous six-year trend of falling homelessness.

• The private rented sector is being relied on to meet housing demand yet is failing in too many instances – sharply rising numbers are being made homeless across the country because tenancies are ending but they cannot find or afford an alternative. This is now the leading cause of statutory homelessness in London (316% increase in homelessness due to this in the capital between 2009/10 – 2012/13).

A range of specialist homelessness funding programmes intended to ameliorate the impact of these negative structural trends on particularly vulnerable groups are also due to end in 2014. It therefore seems that, as in 2010, we may soon be facing another critical juncture in homelessness trends in England.
