There were 151,630 children living in temporary accommodation at the end of March this year, according to data published by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) on Thursday, which is up 15% year-on-year and a record high since this measure began in 2004. A total of 117,450 households were in temporary accommodation, the figures showed.
