Homeless presentation by Ethnicity and year

This dataset shows the number of persons who have approached Birmingham City Council and presented as homeless or threatened with homelessness. Data is broken down by year and ethnicity.In England, local authorities have a statutory duty to prevent homelessness under the Homelessness Reduction Act 2017. This duty requires them to take reasonable steps to help individuals who are threatened with homelessness within 56 days to secure that accommodation does not cease to be available for their occupation. Small number suppression has been applied to those detailed ethnicities which are less than 10. All those individuals will be listed as a group called Data disclosure protection.
