Sarah Dyke

Liberal Democrat — Glastonbury and Somerton

Speaking in the House of Commons on 11 December 2025

Debate

National Plan to End Homelessness

Contribution

Glastonbury has the highest density of van dwellers in the UK, with around 300 people living in caravans. While some do choose this as a way of life, many are vulnerable or simply cannot afford to pay rent. They deserve a proper roof over their heads, as many of these caravans are simply not fit for accommodation. What considerations has the Minister made in this strategy to support those being exploited by unscrupulous van lords in this unregulated market? Will she meet me to discuss this ongoing crisis?
