In Their Own Words: Children’s Experiences in Temporary Accommodation (2025)

This research was commissioned from De Montfort University and University College London and examines how children live their lives in temporary accommodation in Scotland, through their own words and stories. The findings show the impact that a stay in temporary accommodation has on children’s safety, health and education. The report ends with making a series of policy recommendations on how to address the harms that temporary accommodation can cause.
