More details
Im a care leaver and I have been support lodgings since 18 half and supported housing since 19 half and I turned 21 this year. Every since I started looked for a place before I turned 18. I have seen so much discrimination against people on benefits. I now understand why people are homeless Becuase most of the affordable places won't accept people like me on benefits
