Stay Home by Becky Tunstall
The UK housing system has been described as being in ‘crisis’, but suddenly in 2020 homes were on the COVID-19 frontline, used for shielding, isolating and care. Most were used by more people, for more hours, for more activities. Many households were cut off from normal services and contacts, and many lost the means to pay for their homes. Millions of infections occurred at home, and inequalities in household type, housing space, cost and tenure contributed to the unequal impact of the pandemic. This book brings together a wealth of data, individual testimony and analysis, in one convenient resource for students, scholars and practitioners.
“It should become essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate housing and public policy courses and is bristling with ideas for further researchIt remains the only book-length account of the pandemic in the UK, which considers housing and home in any depth.” International Journal of Housing Policy
