Much literature explaining women 's homelessness in the United Kingdom, have argued from a feminist perspective which highlighted that the market dominated housing policies disadvantage female-led households based on a gendered division of labour, (Watson and Austerberry, 1986) . Furthermore (Pleace, and Quilgars, 1996), asserted that dominant family model assumes domestic roles for women, such that family care, child care and other domestic duties as solely that responsibility for women. (Razzu, 2014) studies demonstration that on average women share 76% of housework, (although this trend have change over the years). However, women role within the home meant they were less likely have full time employment, as a result studies have demonstrated that only 25% of mothers were in paid employment. Moreover, even for women in employment income were relatively low, which meant the women were increasingly dependent on man. On the other hand (Novac, Brown, and Bourbonnais (2009) identified that in the 1960s female -led households were mainly renters and their low income status, lack of subsidised housing and insufficient supports particularly in private property contributes to their homelessness.

Without sufficient education, finding a job is exceptionally challenging. Today, having an educated background is crucial in finding a job, due to the competitive nature of society. Employers simply want the best of the best, meaning that you must have, at the very least, a secondary school education, a tremendous amount of work experience in many different fields of work, and in many cases, a postsecondary education. If an individual is coming from a disadvantaged background, having a sufficient education in the standards of today’s society is rare. If an individual does not have the requirements to get a sufficiently paid job, they will have no other way of getting an income that will allow them to afford the cost of a living space. Even if an individual acquires a job that pays minimum wage, the amount of income earned may not be enough to stay off the streets. In the documentary, Storied Streets (2014), many of the individuals that were interviewed discuss how difficult it is to get off the streets without external help from social support groups. Many of the individuals in the documentary did not have sufficient education and were unable to get jobs that paid enough for them to support themselves and afford housing. An example of the impacts of insufficient education and income is Digger’s life as a rounder. When he

This article highlights the callousness of what Newham Council are doing because there is the polarity of homelessness and poverty with unnecessary expenditure. The shock value is further enhanced by the fact that there are children involved.

This article discusses the role of political back channels in the siting of social service facilities, with a focus on group homes, arguing that the political back channels impair social services ability to place facilities in neighbourhoods outside of very low-income areas. The authors argue their theory by using a case study composed of interviews, media analysis, and a spatial analysis of the city of Worcester. The article relates to other literature such as Jennifer Wolch and Michael Dear’s works on back channel politics and group homes. The authors are limited due to the article's scope and the lack of research in this specific area of health geography.

The crisis of homelessness has been experienced the world over and Australia is no different in this regard. With the real estate boom of the 90s and early 2000s, previously affordable areas saw a steep increase in newly constructed housing that led to the gentrification of such suburbs (Lucas, 2014) and caused a rise in the price of housing in the area. The Commonwealth and State governments have identified the lack affordable housing as a pressing issue and one of the causes of homelessness. This in turn, has led to the release of various policies, white papers and commitments to addressing the issue. Through this essay, the author will attempt to theorise the policy making process by analysing the policy episode of the Moreland

These remaining tenants threatened the lords to leave unless they made a new agreement. The landlords’ agreed and made an agreement where they reduced their labour services [ ], also, the rent decreased but not by a lot, for instance, a rent of certain land before the plague was 8d and it became 6d [ ] Regardless of all this, landlords all over Europe were having difficulty finding tenants and in keeping them [ ], that is because all the employees were refusing unless they were paid a higher wage while others preferred to beg instead of working [ ].Consequently, an agreement was passed ordering physically fit men and women under the age of 60 that do not live by trade or own land are obliged to accept offers of employment. Refusing the offer would result in their immediate arrest until accepted. [

The main aim of this new social policy in the United Kingdom is to ensure that children who leave care have similar access to educational opportunities like other children within the entire society. Children who leave care lack the needed knowledge and capacity to survive in the society since they have limited access to essential resources in the contemporary world. "The education of children in and leaving care has acquired a policy prominence within the UK after many years of neglect" (Cameron 2007, p.39). Children leaving care have problems securing educational opportunities to further their growth and development because of several reasons. The first reason for their state is the lack of stable families to carter for their essential needs and necessities (Simon 2008, p.91). Most of these young society members usually fall outside the formal education system thus fail to acquire necessary information on how to survive within the economy. Because of their societal state, they are incapable of acquiring employment opportunities to facilitate satisfaction of their needs. This vulnerable situation of the young society members makes it crucial for the application of this policy. Implementation of the policy would allow these young individuals to avoid exploitation, abuse, and violent practices from other societal members. "Results show that study care leavers were more likely to

lack clarity on statements. Residential homes have potential for abuse. In addition carers invade on privacy this is also discriminatory practice on by the organisation.

Housing is a basic necessity for all individual. In coming up with housing facilities, there are policies and strategies set in place to ensure that the housing is convenient for human shelter. In the United Kingdom, the human housing environment is acknowledged as a setting affecting health. Epidemiological, quasi-studies have attributed the relation to the housing construction methodologies as well as the indoor quality systems in across the country (Bonnefoy, 2007). The context of this paper familiarize with the strategically imposed policies of housing, how housing policy making has changed over years, the policies followed in construction and indoor air quality and efficacy of authoritarian controls in the U.K.

It is imperative to understand that this work was initiated based on an opinion that has led to do research to justify the means. The opinion remains, anybody that needs government support must be assisted up to a point, ensuring that the support given is reasonable, adequate, providing the individual with all available means until the person is capable to move on their own and become an asset to the community full of dignity and pride for overcoming difficult times that, we are all subject to confront in our life time.

Similarly, Alcock, (2014, p.2) defined social policy as the term used to refer to the “action taken within the society to develop, and to deliver services for people in order to meet their needs for welfare and wellbeing”. Social policy is underpinned by social inequality due to the social problems which affects families and community life in the UK; this could be in terms of health, poverty, unemployment, anti-social behaviour or family breakdown. It also upholds core values in policy making which ensures mutual obligations are taken by administration and social care services in promoting the wellbeing, the rights and ensuring social justice for families and communities. Moreover, these policies must be reflected on, in the delivery of social care services when working to tackle social problems in the UK. It ought to create a response to the creation of the welfare state and the social need of people within the society. However, there is a compact argument whether there are barriers in entailing all the necessary relations for the well-being of people, because the system may not fully ensure all the necessary needs of families are well responded to due to an overlap between the delivery of services and the government provision to these needs.

UK Benefits System is responsible for providing many deserving groups with financial and material support. As such we consider the various factors that create beneficial opportunities for individuals. We delve into the specific case of pregnant teenagers who make for a particularly deserving group with regards to their special circumstances. Housing benefits are generally considered and their obvious socio-economic impacts are recognized.

A whole issue within itself is the accessibility to social housing for vulnerable Australians, with many families needing to seek short-term or crisis accommodation due to the lack of availabilities within the social housing sector, and for those who are able to obtain housing within the private sector often fall victim to private landlords as they display forms of power when rent falls into arears. These people then become victims within the private market, often becoming ‘blacklisted’ by landlords and their agents. It is believed that private renters who attempt to advocate for their rights are often locked out of their premises due to “disruptive behaviour.” (Sharam and Hulse, 2014)

Now a day’s council and social housing estates are seen to be the epitome of substandard, inferior, second-rate living where disorder and irresponsibility run rife. Weather this view of social housing is correct or not public opinion has very little choice but to be on the side of the private rental sector as they are the largest sector within the UK. Mass social housing seems to be a thing of the past as aspirations of voters, in a country where there is a national obsession with property prices, have moved
