Fix the Five Basics for Temporary Accommodation
1 in 50 Londoners are currently stuck in ‘temporary’ accommodation, and too often, they lack these five basic amenities: somewhere to cook, laundry access, WiFi, secure storage and clear information.

1 in 50 Londoners are currently living in temporary accommodation. Many without a kitchen, washing machine, or Wi-Fi, for months and often years. With every borough going to election in May, there's a real opportunity to push for change. It’s time to Fix the Five Basics.
