📢 Over one million people are experiencing poverty in Scotland. One in four of the people in poverty are children. Our latest report finds that the Scottish and UK governments are failing to use their powers to reduce poverty. 1/6

📄 Our 2024 Prevention Pathway Review is published, and the findings are stark. To mark #WorldHomelessDay, and on behalf of A Way Home Scotland , we’ve released a report tracking Scotland’s progress in implementing the Youth Homelessness Prevention Pathways.

Read the report we commissioned with Policy Scotland on the financial impact and human cost of temporary accommodation in Edinburgh and why we can’t build our way out of a homelessness crisis here: buff.ly/3TBzG0Y #WorldHomelessDay

Global homelessness is an urgent, shared, and solvable issue. On #WorldHomelessDay, we urge practitioners, policymakers, researchers, and advocates to work together to establish a shared definition of #homelessness and accurate data collection to inform policies and programs.

Huge thank you to Prof Andrea Williamson @UniversityofGlasgow for an absolutely brilliant seminar on applying a ‘missingness’ lens to healthcare for inclusion health populations 👏👏👏
