In the lead up to the UK general elections, the issue of the housing crisis is looming large as a key concern for voters. The city of Stoke-on-Trent, located in central England, is facing a particularly severe shortage of affordable housing, leading to rising rents and leaving thousands of residents without stable accommodation.
Many individuals in Stoke-on-Trent are forced to live in hostels, temporary shelters, or even on the streets due to the lack of affordable housing options. The city’s housing crisis is not only a pressing issue for residents, but also highlights the broader challenges facing the UK housing market.
