More than 43% of working renters across the UK are one paycheck away from losing their homes, figures from Shelter reveal.
Emma Harris, 49, has been left struggling after she was made redundant in August 2024 More than 43% of working renters across the UK are only one paycheck away from losing their homes, new figures show. Data obtained by the housing charity Shelter from its latest YouGov polling shows this equates to 2.9 million people. For 1.7 million of private renters, they would immediately be unable to pay rent from their savings if they lost their job.
This follows record levels of evictions, rising rent rates and demands to pay several months rent in advance at the start of contracts. Most significantly, it will scrap the section 21 ‘no fault’ evictions and introduce more fairness to the system. Shelter's campaign to fix renting Shelter has launched a campaign to fix the renting crisis across the UK.
