| | 120,000 children will be homeless this Christmas by Hélène Mulholland 16 December 2005 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20) |
 | | Adam Sampson, director of Shelter, lit up alternative Christmas lights today as part of the charity's campaign to persuade government to commit to building an extra 20,000 social rented homes a year to help lift thousands of children out of homelessness and bad housing. |
 | | The charity was disappointed earlier this month when the chancellor, Gordon Brown, failed to stipulate details of his commitment to extra social housing in his formal response to the Bank of England economist Kate Barker's review of housing supply. |
 | | The charity has called for tougher targets to end the blight of overcrowding, which sees many children forced to sleep in lounges, dining rooms or kitchens, according to research published by the charity last month. |
