One million children in Britain live in bad housing - enough to fill the cities of Edinburgh, Bath and Manchester. They live in housing that is run-down, overcrowded or dangerous.
Bad housing wrecks lives and robs children of their security, health, and a fair chance in life. Shelter helps 100,000 people a year fight for their rights, get back on their feet, and find and keep a home.
