The Homeless In England

Introduction to the homeless in England Before going to the UK, I decided to look at the situation of the homeless, so I tried to obtain information via the Internet, but gave up so much information soon. When we arrived in the UK, I thought about making the theme of the bar culture easier to write, so I thought about changing the theme. Ask them about their situation and why they are homeless.

British homeless has continued to rise since 2010. By 2010, it is estimated that the number of people who took a rough sleep since 2010 has more than doubled. According to the National Audit Authority, the number of families residing in the UK temporary housing increased by 60% and increased by 134% in 2010 - 17. Rough Sleeper It is estimated that 4,751 people spent the night in England in 2017, an increase of 15% from last year. Shelter, a residential charity, used four pairs of official statistics of 2016 to calculate the homeless British 254,514 people.

Homeless defenders have carried out various activities, memorial events and projects to raise awareness of homelessness. In 1987, the United Nations established an international housing year for homelessness. In the UK, supporters created an annual event called Homeless Action Week. In Australia, NGOs hold two annual events each year. It is a homeless week and a youth homeless day. Some supporters have adopted social media to raise awareness about projects such as "I have a name."

Even if homeless people commit a crime or use money collected in things like alcohol or medicine, not all homeless people do the same thing. Many homeless people are Vietnamese veterans who are suffering from mental disorders or are unable to survive in the economy in which we live. I have had some experiences with homeless people, but there are unforgettable people.

Homelessness in rural areas is a problem that is almost hidden in society and is not often portrayed about homelessness. In the UK countryside, the number of homeless people increased by 30% from 2002 to 2004 (Countryside Agency, 2004). As people adopt new space structure, this problem is expanding in the UK. People are moving from urban areas to rural areas and are often wealthy families looking for pastoral rural landscapes (more attractive rural landscapes). In 2003, only half of the people who bought land in the countryside were farmers (Countryside Agency, 2004). Due to this structural change and lack of future plans for rural areas, people in rural areas lack an increasingly affordable housing. These rural homeless people are often forced to stay in cars and relocate camps / refugees and are exposed to these factors. Since this group is not usually recognized by the state, there is no attention to cause help.
