Over 5,000 households who contacted Threshold were at risk of losing their home

The charity published its quarterly impact report between the period July to September

The people who contacted Threshold in the last quarter were at risk of losing their home and possibly entering homelessness, according to a new report

During this time, the organisation supported over 900 households to stay in their homes or secure alternative housing, preventing them from entering homelessness, with 1,333 adults and 939 children supported. John Mark-McCafferty, chief executive of Threshold, said these figures show there is “still a lot of work to be done to tackle the housing crisis”.

The quarterly report also showed an increasing number of tenant queries relating to poor standards of accommodation. In order to combat the growing number of queries regarding accommodation standards, including issues regarding mould and broken heating systems, Threshold has proposed a new NCT-style system for housing that would ensure accommodation standards are met.
