Toying With Their Future

More than one million children in Britain are growing up in overcrowded, unfit, or emergency housing-conditions associated with serious health problems and poor education. This report, based on research done by the housing charity Shelter, showed that one in 12 children in England, Wales, and Scotland were at increased risk of developing diseases such as bronchitis, tuberculosis, or asthma because of their poor housing.
