Rejected petition Invisible Homeless

More details

People who live in Hostels or supported accommodation are classed as invisible homeless.
Many of which claim housing benefit on average £300 PW, and are put on a housing register, which the wait is roughly 7 years. people who get a job which can't afford the rent become street homeless, and ones who are above 19 who decide to take part in full time education get refused housing benefit. what does the Government expect people to do do who live in these circumstances?
