Welcome
Most of us have a picture in our heads when we hear the word "homelessness". A person sleeping rough. A doorway. A cardboard sign.
But that picture only tells part of the story.
In this module, we look at what homelessness actually means in the UK today — in all its forms. Understanding the full picture matters, because the way we define homelessness shapes who we see, who gets help, and how we talk about the people we work with.
