The Crisis media release summarising the report’s key findings is here.

Extracted from the report itself, these charts present the essence of the report’s quantitative analysis:

  • Figure 3.1 is sourced from annual local authority estimates compiled by the UK Government.
  • Figure 3.3 draws on what is effectively a ‘by name list’ for Greater London.
  • Figures 4.1-4.18 draw on UK Government statistics on local authority management of homelessness under England’s legislative framework.
  • Figure 4.23 is based on responses to the research team’s 2025 local authority survey.
  • Figures 5.3 and 5.5 are outputs from multi-source modelling by Prof Glen Bramley. The projections on future homelessness reductions achievable via specified social security, housing and homelessness policy reforms, as quantified in Figure 5.5, relate to the measures summarised in Table 5.4.
