Ukrainian refugees have been made homeless in the UK after relationships with hosts broke down.
660 Ukrainian households requested homelessness aid from local authorities.
There are huge gaps in the plans put in place to assist them.
An eyebrow is raised at the beginning, and the door is slammed shut at the end. A language error, the incorrect technique to load the dishwasher, and an awkward pause followed by a courteous invitation to leave.

It’s unclear how big the issue is right now. The Ukraine Family Scheme, which allows Ukrainians to be hosted by family members in the UK, and the Homes for Ukraine scheme, where Ukrainians find a local “sponsor” through friends, charities, or even social media, and jointly apply for a visa, are the two programmes that have allowed 77,000 Ukrainians to enter the UK since the war began.
The UK government claims that “the vast majority… are settling in well.”
However, 660 Ukrainian households requested homelessness aid from local authorities between February 24 and June 3, according to recent preliminary statistics gathered by the UK government. And those numbers do not provide the complete picture. Conflicts between UK hosts and members of the Ukrainian community in London are frequently discussed in social media forums for that community.
We have spoken to several refugees who have been forced homeless in those locations, but almost a quarter of local authorities have not yet provided any information. There are huge gaps in the plans put in place to assist them, as revealed by two compelling testimonies of unrelated women.
