Moving on: the reasons and outcomes

A report into the outcomes of homeless households who voluntarily relocated into social housing across the UK

The survey’s findings undermine some of the negative assumptions about moving out-of-area and shows how, in certain cases, relocating long distance is a valid route to a better and more stable life.

This unique white paper provides results from a survey of 690 homeless households who decided to move out of their area into permanent social housing through our national mobility scheme, Homefinder UK. The applicants’ journey is examined closely, from time spent waiting for council housing prior to using the Homefinder UK service, to satisfaction rates after moving long distance for a social home.
