No childhood lost to homelessness

Children only get one childhood.

10,715 children are trapped in harmful temporary homeless accommodation in Scotland. Make this the last winter they have to spend there.

Tell the Scottish Government to end child homelessness.

What we do

At Shelter Scotland, we tackle housing injustice by:
