Description

> This dataset contains the numbers of households accommodated by local authorities, broken down by local authority and temporary accommodation type from 2011 Q2 to 2014 Q2 for households accepted as statuorily homeless. Data for other time periods will be added in due course. > > 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 detailed explanation of the responsibilities of local authorities in this area is available from the DCLG website, here. > >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". > > 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. > >##Additional Information > * This data is also available in Table 784a, available for download as an Excel spreadsheet (https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/358231/Table_784a.xls). > * The original open data source canbe found at the DCLG Open Data Portal - ODC (http://opendatacommunities.org/data/homelessness/households-accommodated/temporary-housing-types).
