As per the view of Paisi, Brennan and White, (2019) stated out that tents have become
the familiar sights on the streets of London. It has shot up the media and political agenda within
the last few years. Lack of financial support from the UK authorities is to preventing local
authorities for carrying out their duties to the homelessness people. Henceforth, personal causes
of homelessness might be inclusive of lack of qualification, debts, poor mental and physical
health, unemployment, breakdown and lack of social support.
In contrary to Mackie, Johnsen and Wood, (2019) it has been identified that homeless is
one of the complex social problem with variety of common social factors and underlying
economic issues such as poverty, lack of affordability housing, ineffective mental and physical
health.
Thus, adults of the UK gets involved in crime rate at an early age. It affects the everyone
living in the community. They are the individual who use to get committed in the unusual acts
and may experience physical or mental health. If the people experiences the feelings of isolation,
homelessness can raise chances of taking drugs and experiencing mental and physical health
problems. Homelessness people are majorly get connected to the criminal activities.
Theme 2: Identification of drivers of poverty and homelessness.

offered by becoming the urban development. As per the view of McCann and Brown, (2019)
stated that poverty is the reason that pushes the number of the individuals to leave their rural
homes, to seek better economic and job opportunities they tends to get shifted to the cities and
towns. In contrary to Bax and Middleton, (2019) stated that migration must be considered as part
of process of becoming homelessness. On the other hand, some part in the UK is majorly hit by
the environmental disasters and the impact of climate change than others. Due to this, the
number of people loss their housing jobs and family.
In contrary to McCann and Brown, (2019) stated that social and demographic change has
all over swept the developing world in recent years. Lack of formal people welfare and support
system is problematic factor for some people and this also underpins much of the increase in
street sleeping and this also enhance longevity. As per the view of McCann and Brown, (2019)
stated out that divorce, abandonment of women are increasing and separation may results in
increased female homelessness and female headed household are the poorest. Henceforth, The
social changes are not sudden but this also impacts developing over the several generation.
