The concern of people not being able to afford to live is increasing, sorry to raise this but it is the truth and it affects different people in different ways. Something needs to be done as it is costing risks of peoples lives, psychically as well as mentally. The UK is surely not alone I guess some counties are struggling worse than others. In theUk, homelessness has risen in the last twenty years or more, where more housing is unaffordable. It has got to the stage more and more people are staying hotels, not for holiday reasons but money and living reasons but where is the money for hotels or and the streets coming from, when people themselves are struggling? Back in 2004, there were roughly 101,300 people homeless according to the bcc news but since March this year, it has risen to 131,000, since records started back in 1998. 14,000 people have been staying in hotels or and bed and breakfast, A hotel Plymouth have had several families staying there. This affects all ages, adults, children, teenagers and the elderly. For example; rent has gone up 33.3 percent. Mental illnesses such as Anxiety and Depression is a huge concern where people are worrying how they are going to afford to live, where for a while it has hit the stage where people are thinking, shall I eat or keep warm?

The government needs to be working out ways more can be into services and charities to help people, example someone there to answer the phone right away, creating services and charities trained to help those who need quick help, such a money problems, people at turning point etc as well as mild things people may need help with, also fund raising etc. WWW.mentalhealthandmoneyadvice.org adviceplus.com WWW.mentalhealth.org.Uk
