If you are living in Emergency or Temporary Accommodation, maybe you have a bad landlord, or have been sleeping rough? We want to hear your injustice!
We have initiatives happening all over Brighton and Hove to change hearts, minds and laws in support of Homeless people and vital help in moving forward with their lives.

Brighton and Hove Housing Coalition started in 2016 when Brighton and Hove’s Homelessness Crisis got so bad people were taking their own lives and speaking out in the press.
