Abstract | Homelessness has been a growing problem in many towns and cities across England since 2010. It can have a serious adverse impact on a person’s health and well-being. People who are homeless and sleeping rough or staying in hostels and shelters have significantly higher levels of physical and mental health problems than the general population. They also have higher rates of problematic drug and alcohol use (Wright and Tompkins, 2006). |
