663,328 Empty Houses in UK

www.emptyhomes.com is an independent campaigning charity which aims to raise awareness of the potential of empty homes in England to meet housing need. They devise and promote, with others, sustainable solutions that will bring empty homes back into use.

They seek to achieve these goals by working at two levels:
Nationally - by campaigning, lobbying and communicating for policy change.
Locally - by providing support to local authorities, housing associations, community groups, which want to bring empty homes back into use.

They have some interesting statistics. OK these date back to 2006 - but the figures are still worth thinking about. So where are all the empty homes in the UK? Click here.

And what about all the empty houses in the South East? Click here

Thanks Sylvie...
