Request
The most recent information about the number homeless people on the island.
Response
We do not hold information regarding the number of homeless people on the island, apart from information of a similar nature that was gathered in the 2011 census.
We contacted the Shelter Trust who gave us information on the number of people residing in their establishments, but at the time of the 2011 census there were no people considered to be “homeless”. There were 76 people residing in “homeless hostels or temporary shelters”. This number has been published in the 2011 census report (chapter 3, table 3.14):
