A record number of children are living in temporary accommodation, as the level of homelessness in England soars.
The housing department revealed on Tuesday that 104,510 households were in temporary accommodation by the end of March this year — a 25-year high.
The total number of children in the same situation is at the highest level since records for that measure began in 2004, with 131,370 children living in temporary accommodation.
