A look inside life in temporary accommodation

1 in every 58 people in London are experiencing homelessness with one in five people in the UK fearing that might happen to them too.

This is according to new research by IKEA and the homeless charity ‘Shelter’ who have designed a series of rooms based on stories from real people showing the reality of what it’s like to live in temporary accommodation.

It comes as they launch a campaign asking the government to build more homes to support those in need.

We hear from Sam who had to move into temporary accommodation after her relationship broke down and Polly Neate from the charity.
