Homelessness in rural areas in England has more than
doubled in the last two years, according to analysis published as campaigners
warn of planning reforms likely to worsen the situation. The number of
households categorised as homeless in rural local authorities in England rose
to 19,975 – an increase of 115% from 2017-18 – according to the countryside
charity CPRE, and the Rural Services Network, which represents many parish
councils and other countryside organisations. The rise in numbers of households
owed homelessness relief by councils, according to government figures, has been
greatest in the north-east and north-west of England but an increase has
happened in all areas. Read more on the Guardian website.
