Watch this short video about Elaine's experience with housing
137,100 households are on council waiting lists for a home – that's the same as the entire populations of Inverness and Paisley combined!
14,075 children were made homeless last year - that's equivalent to 6 children in every school in Scotland.
67,000 households are overcrowded – that's more than the biggest football stadium in Scotland can hold.
1 million people are living in poverty after housing costs – that's one in five people in Scotland.
That's why we're still fighting until there's a home for everyone, will you join us?
