The number of deaths of homeless people in England and Wales, by sex, five-year age group and underlying cause of death, 2013 to 2021 registrations. Experimental Statistics.

This dataset shows the number of persons who have approached Birmingham City Council and presented as homeless or threatened with homelessness. Data is broken down by year and ethnicity.In England, local authorities have a statutory duty to prevent homelessness under the Homelessness Reduction Act 2017. This duty requires them to take reasonable steps to help individuals who are threatened with homelessness within 56 days to secure that accommodation does not cease to be available for their occupation. Small number suppression has been applied to those detailed ethnicities which are less than 10. All those individuals will be listed as a group called Data disclosure protection.

For each local authority, the number of households accepted as homeless, per 1000 households.

The term "Homelessness" is often considered to apply only to people "sleeping rough". However, most of our statistics on homelessness relate to the statutorily homeless i.e. those households which meet specific criteria of priority need set out in legislation, and to whom a homelessness duty has been accepted by a local authority.

Such households are rarely homeless in the literal sense of being without a roof over their heads, but are more likely to be threatened with the loss of, or are unable to continue with, their current accommodation.

A "main homelessness duty" is owed where the authority is satisfied that the applicant is eligible for assistance, unintentionally homeless and falls within a specified priority need group. Such statutorily homeless households are referred to as "acceptances".

This dataset provides statistics on the numbers of households accepted as statutorily homeless and presented in terms of acceptances per 1000 households in each local authority area. The total number of acceptances is broken down further according to ethnicity in the related dataset, Homelessness Acceptances.

The numbers are presented in terms of households, not individuals. A household is defined as: one person living alone, or a group of people living at the same address who share common housekeeping or a living room.

Values of less than five households have been suppressed. In addition, some values of five or greater have been suppressed to prevent other suppressed values being calculated

This data is also available in Table 784a, available for download as an Excel spreadsheet.

Both are provided in excel and csv format.

These data help us compare trends across the country for the decisions local authorities make when people apply to them as homeless and each district's use of temporary accommodation.

This dataset contains the number of households placed or leaving temporary accommodation for England by quarter.

The term "Homelessness" is often considered to apply only to people "sleeping rough". However, most of our statistics on homelessness relate to the statutorily homeless i.e. those households which meet specific criteria of priority need set out in legislation, and to whom a homelessness duty has been accepted by a local authority.

Such households are rarely homeless in the literal sense of being without a roof over their heads, but are more likely to be threatened with the loss of, or are unable to continue with, their current accommodation.

This dataset provides statistics on households in temporary accommodation (excluding those for whom a duty is owed, but no accommodation has been secured) on the last day of the quarter, as arranged by a local housing authority as a discharge of their statutory homelessness functions.

The numbers are presented in terms of households, not individuals. A household is defined as: one person living alone, or a group of people living at the same address who share common housekeeping or a living room. Values of less than five households have been suppressed. In addition, some values of five or greater have been suppressed to prevent other suppressed values being calculated

Levels of homelessness households in temporary accommodation Source: Communities and Local Government (CLG) Publisher: Neighbourhood Statistics Geographies: Local Authority District (LAD), Government Office Region (GOR), National Geographic coverage: England Time coverage: 2000/01 to 2008/09 Notes: The dataset includes the total number of homeless acceptances, homeless acceptances as a proportion (%) of total households on the LA's Housing Register, counts of homeless households in temporary accommodation, counts of homeless households in bed and breakfast accommodation, homeless households in bed and breakfast accommodation as a proportion (%) of the total number of homeless households in temporary accommodation, the mean length of stay in bed and breakfast accommodation, and counts of LA dwellings let to homeless households in priority need. The denominators used to calculate the 'Homeless acceptances as a percentage of the total households on the Housing Register' and the 'Percentage of total LA dwellings let to households in priority need' variables are taken from the relevant year of the 'Social Rented Housing: Demand and Supply' datasets which are also available on the Neighbourhood Statistics website.

Decisions on whether a household is homeless and in priority need.

The term "Homelessness" is often considered to apply only to people "sleeping rough". However, most of our statistics on homelessness relate to the statutorily homeless i.e. those households which meet specific criteria of priority need set out in legislation, and to whom a homelessness duty has been accepted by a local authority.

Such households are rarely homeless in the literal sense of being without a roof over their heads, but are more likely to be threatened with the loss of, or are unable to continue with, their current accommodation.

All households that apply for assistance under the Housing and Homelessness Acts are referred to as "decisions". However, these do not include households found to be ineligible for assistance (some persons from abroad are ineligible for assistance).

This dataset provides statistics on the numbers of decisions made on applications for assistance. The data is broken down by local authority and according to the outcome of the decision: either rejected, together with reason for rejection, or accepted.

The numbers are presented in terms of households, not individuals. A household is defined as: one person living alone, or a group of people living at the same address who share common housekeeping or a living room.

Values of less than five households have been suppressed. In addition, some values of five or greater have been suppressed to prevent other suppressed values being calculated

The data was extracted into a CSV file from the Homelessness Services Resource Directory which can be found here. Homelessness is a broader issue as it encompasses lots of factors ranging from accommodation needs of an individual, health issues, money and legal advice, employment and so on. These issues are all addressed in a holistic and integrated way to prevent homelessness occurring. The data here is designed to empower people to gain employment while giving them the skills, attitude and confidence to gain and maintain employment in the long run. It also includes a range of support services people faced with unemployment would benefit from. The services listed include Jobcentres, Skills Development Scotland and Specialist Homeless and Employability Services. Their respective contact details (name, address, telephone number, type of service, email address) and detailed service each organization covers are also included in the dataset.

Households that are threatened with homelessness within 56 days are owed help from the local authority to prevent homelessness and the authority must work to relieve homelessness for those who are actually homeless. Households who are statutorily homeless are owed legal duties that fall into three main categories:

Prevention duties include any activities aimed at preventing a household threatened with homelessness from becoming homeless. This would involve activities to enable an applicant to remain in their current home or find alternative accommodation in order to prevent them from becoming homeless. The duty lasts for 56 days, but may be extended if the local authority is continuing with efforts to prevent homelessness.

Relief duties are owed to households that are already homeless and require help to secure settled accommodation. The duty lasts 56 days, and can only be extended by a local authority if the households would not be owed the main homelessness duty.

Main homelessness duty describes the duty a local authority has towards an applicant who is unintentionally homeless, eligible for assistance and has priority need. This definition has not been changed by the 2017 HRA. However, these households are now only owed a main duty if their homelessness has not been successfully prevented or relieved.

The following dataset provides statistics on the quarterly P1E return. Each local housing authority is required to consider housing needs within its area, including the needs of homeless households, to whom local authorities hava a statutory duty to provide assistance. The purpose of the quarterly P1E form is to collect data from English local housing authorities on their responsibilities under homelessness legislation. Further information on P1E forms can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/homelessness-data-notes-and-definitions Please note Sections with the symbol # are sections not required to be completed.
