Overview

Summary of dataset and variables

Statistical quality

Vale of Glamorgan data:

From November 2025 to June 2026, the Vale of Glamorgan was unable to provide any data due to an unexpected system disruption following an upgrade. In agreement with the local authority, their October 2025 data was used as an estimate for these months. This month, Vale of Glamorgan has provided July 2026 data for the following measures:

• Occurrences of people placed into temporary accommodation during the month

• Homeless individuals living in temporary accommodation at the end of the month

• Number of rough sleepers

Data for these measures for the period of November 2025 to June 2026 has not been revised and October 2025 data continues to be used as an estimate for these months.

The Vale of Glamorgan remains unable to provide data on the number of homeless individuals moved into suitable long-term accommodation during the month. Therefore, their October 2025 data continues to be used as an estimate for this measure.

Isle of Anglesey incorrectly recorded data:

In April 2026, Isle of Anglesey identified that bed and breakfast (B&B) and hotel, and hostels had been incorrectly recorded within their temporary accommodation data for several years. While the total number of individuals in temporary accommodation remained unaffected, the distribution across accommodation types was inaccurate. This also affected the Wales-level figures for these breakdowns.

The correct breakdowns were first published in Homelessness accommodation provision and rough sleeping: March 2026, published in May 2026. Please refer to that release for further information. Data for periods prior to March 2026 have not been revised, resulting in a discontinuity in the time series from March 2026 onwards.
