More than 1,300 people in the UK died while
homeless last year, according to figures that
highlight the stark regional differences within
the UK, as cuts to health, mental health and drug
and alcohol services took their toll.
Research by the charity Museum of
<https://www.theguardian.com/society/homelessness>Homelessness
shows that the number of homeless people who died
in 2022 was 1,313, an 85% increase on the numbers
recorded by the study just three years earlier.
<https://museumofhomelessness.org/news/museum-of-homelessness-honours-the-1313-people-experiencing-homelessness-who-died-in-2022>The
figures include people sleeping rough as well as
those placed in emergency accommodation and other
insecure settings. Each death was verified by a
freedom of information request, coroners report, charity or family member.
Matt Turtle, co-founder of the Museum of
Homelessness, said: A toxic cocktail of cuts,
criminalisation and crackdowns is making life
even harder for the UKs most vulnerable people.
Just tinkering around the edges as the government
plans wont fix the damage of the last 12 years.
Far stronger policy and investment are needed to
deal with the appalling loss of life. With a
heavy heart we expect to report more of the same
in 2024, but with our colleagues we will continue
to do what we can to save lives.
The research showed that while there was a small
year-on-year increase over the past year (2%),
the differences between England, Scotland, Wales
and Northern Ireland were significant.
Fatalities in England rose by 22% to 875, and by
27% to 76 in Wales. In Northern Ireland the
number of deaths fell by 37% to 205, but are more
than double the level seen in 2020 after a large
spike last year. Scotlands 157 deaths were a 15%
decrease on the previous year.
The UK-wide figures were an increase on the
verified
<https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/mar/31/1200-died-while-homeless-in-uk-in-2021>1,286
deaths in 2021,
<https://www.theguardian.com/society/2021/feb/22/uk-homeless-deaths-rise-by-more-than-a-third-in-a-year-study-finds>976
in 2020, and 710 in 2019.
The annual audit by the Museum of Homelessness
found most deaths occurred among people living in
emergency housing or hostels, with 83% of deaths
taking place when the person was in some form of
accommodation. The figures also showed that 85%
of those who died were under the age of 65.
Turtle said: The fact that so many people
continue to die in unregulated, taxpayer-funded
accommodation run by rogue landlords is a disgrace.
The charity said that its figures were likely to
be an underestimate as not all local authorities
had replied to FoI requests, including large
councils such as Birmingham, Blackpool, Ealing and Hackney.
Paula Barker, a Labour MP and the shadow
homelessness and rough sleeping minister, said:
This governments track record in tackling all
forms of homelessness is abysmal. Its been clear
for a long time that there are deep-rooted
problems across supported and temporary
accommodation. Each death is a tragedy and these figures are deeply worrying.
According to the research, the number of deaths
has increased in all different categories of
homeless accommodation since last year. The
largest increases include those in rough sleeper
accommodation and temporary accommodation, both marking 10% increases.
Where the cause of the death is recorded, 36% of
deaths related to drugs and alcohol and 10% died by suicide.
Jessica Turtle, co-founder of the Museum of
Homelessness, said: The leading cause of death,
year on year, is people dying either from
overdose or from drug and alcohol use. Thats a
way of self-soothing, self-medicating. People who
usually have active addictions like that is
usually because life is really hard.
Francesca Albanese, acting director of policy and
external affairs at the charity Crisis, said:
Behind each of these statistics is a human
being, a life cut short and potential unrealised.
The fact that anyone dies while homeless is shameful.
That many of these deaths are happening while in
emergency or supported accommodation is shocking
these are places that should provide some
respite and a foothold out of homelessness and
yet in many cases the reverse is true. We cannot let this continue.
A Department for Levelling Up,
<https://www.theguardian.com/society/housing>Housing
and Communities spokesperson said: We are
determined to end rough sleeping for good. That
is why we published our £2bn cross-government
strategy setting out our plan to tackle
homelessness and rough sleeping over the next three years.
This includes £186m to help those with drug and
alcohol addiction access recovery services and up
to £53m for suitable and stable accommodation.
Councils have a duty to ensure temporary
accommodation is suitable and we are providing
them with £654m over two years to help prevent homelessness.

"And I think, in the end, that is the best
definition of journalism I have heard; to
challenge authority - all authority - especially
so when governments and politicians take us to
war, when they have decided that they will kill
and others will die. " --Robert Fisk

'From South America, where payment must be made
with subtlety, the Bormann organization has made
a substantial contribution. It has drawn many of
the brightest Jewish businessmen into a
participatory role in the development of many of
its corporations, and many of these Jews share
their prosperity most generously with Israel. If
their proposals are sound, they are even provided
with a specially dispensed venture capital fund.
I spoke with one Jewish businessmen in Hartford,
Connecticut. He had arrived there quite unknown
several years before our conversation, but with
Bormann money as his leverage. Today he is more
than a millionaire, a quiet leader in the
community with a certain share of his profits
earmarked as always for his venture capital
benefactors. This has taken place in many other
instances across America and demonstrates how
Bormanns people operate in the contemporary
commercial world, in contrast to the fanciful
nonsense with which Nazis are described in so much literature.
So much emphasis is placed on select Jewish
participation in Bormann companies that when
Adolf Eichmann was seized and taken to Tel Aviv
to stand trial, it produced a shock wave in the
Jewish and German communities of Buenos Aires.
Jewish leaders informed the Israeli authorities
in no uncertain terms that this must never happen
again because a repetition would permanently
rupture relations with the Germans of Latin
America, as well as with the Bormann
organization, and cut off the flow of Jewish
money to Israel. It never happened again, and the
pursuit of Bormann quieted down at the request of
these Jewish leaders. He is residing in an
Argentinian safe haven, protected by the most
efficient German infrastructure in history as
well as by all those whose prosperity depends on his well-being.'
