Housing discrimination a ‘crisis within a crisis’

Black people, Travellers, lone parents, people with disabilities, and young males are suffering blatant discrimination in accessing housing.

They face a battle to get accommodation, have to put up with lower standards of accommodation, and are disproportionately represented among the homeless.

Their experiences compare poorly to other people in society even when income levels are the same and they remain consistently bad even when housing is more plentiful and rents are lower.
