Exploring the Paradox: Homelessness Amid Empty Council Homes

Exploring the Paradox: Homelessness Amid Empty Council Homes

In the thought-provoking video “Exploring the Paradox: Homelessness Amid Empty Council Homes,” we confront a stark reality: nearly 34,000 council houses in England sit vacant while many struggle for shelter. Housing activists expose the disconnect between available homes and those in need, spotlighting stories like Rose’s, who endures substandard living conditions with her family. The tragedy lies in the juxtaposition of empty properties and urgent homelessness, prompting essential questions about accountability and care within our communities.
