Family Faces Appalling Living Conditions Amid Housing Crisis in England
Fauzia and her family in west London live in temporary housing plagued by sewage spills, maggots, and worsening conditions. After being evicted from their home, they are among a record 123,000 households in temporary accommodation in England. The UK government has pledged significant funding to tackle the housing crisis, but many families face long commutes and poor living situations. Critics, including housing charity Shelter, warn that this crisis is severely affecting children’s education and well-being.
