Coming Soon: Monday 2nd June
Our upcoming report, 'Children Living in Temporary Accommodation: An Absolute Scandal', exposes the profound and often overlooked impact of temporary accommodation on children's rights, health and education.
Through exploring the experiences of families across the country, it uncovers thirteen violations of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child for children in temporary accommodation. The report calls on local and national governments to implement urgent reforms to mitigate the temporary accommodation crisis.
With over 165,000 homeless children across England, it is vital that their experiences are heard.
The report will be launched on Monday, 2nd June.
Experts in health inequalities
We are a clinically-led and evidence-based not-for-profit, passionate about reducing the impact poverty has on health.
Good health should be shared with all. It should not be damaged by social or economic disadvantage.
We exist to mitigate the effects of the inverse care law, adding capacity to systems which are otherwise overwhelmed by complex needs.
We conduct on-the-ground work to identify challenges, pilot solutions, build an evidence base and then work alongside local and national organisations and policy makers to implement system change.
Shared Health supports homeless families locally in Greater Manchester while also working strategically to promote system change regionally and nationally through the APPG for Households in Temporary Accommodation.

How we do it
We work by promoting innovation, integrated working and co-production.
Innovation
We ensure we are not duplicating but provide unique solutions and promoting best practice. We are not afraid to take risks and learn just as much from what doesn’t work as what does.
Integrated working
Improving health outcomes should not be down to one sector alone. We ensure the VCSE, health, education, social care and political sectors are working together - promoting the idea that it is everyone’s responsibility to support the health of our communities.
Co-production
We are strong advocates that there is a wealth of knowledge and solutions amongst our communities. Our work, projects and outcomes happen with our communities, not to them.
