About this listen

Conversations about homelessness in the media often tend to portray it as an urban problem that predominantly manifests as rough sleeping.

Although this is the most visible form of homelessness, it’s far from the only one. In Wales, youth homelessness manifests in rural areas just as commonly as in urban areas.

So, to highlight this issue, we talk to CEO of GISDA, Sian Elen Tomos, the Youth Homeless Coordinator for Powys, Chris Davis, and Jessica, a young person based in Blaenau Ffestiniog, about the unique challenges of experiencing homelessness in rural parts of Wales.

We cover topics like poverty, transport, second homes, and how these seemingly unrelated issues contribute to the presentation of youth homelessness in rural areas.
