The number of households with children living in bed and
breakfast (B&B) accommodation in England rose by 18 per cent in the last
year, according to official statistics. Figures released by the Ministry of
Housing, Communities and Local Government reveal that there were 2,420
households with children in B&Bs at 31 December 2018 - 34.7 percent of all
households living in such accommodation - up from 2,050 at the same time in
2017. Of those, 810 households had been living in a B&B for more than the
statutory limit of six weeks, although this was an eight per cent decrease on
the previous year. Read more on the CYPN website.
