No Place to Call Home

With record numbers of families living in temporary accommodation, Newsround reporter Shanequa Paris investigates how children are being affected.

No Place to Call Home tells the story of the record numbers of children in the UK who are homeless, as shown by recent government figures. Many live in temporary or unsuitable housing, while others have had to move lots of times and often don’t know where they will be next.

Reporter Shanequa Paris investigates how this has a huge impact on families, on schooling and on children’s mental health. She hears first hand from children who have experienced homelessness and finds out what help is available to them.
