| Why support DENS?
Did you know that the average life expectancy of a homeless person in the UK is 42 years, compared to the national average of 74 years for men and 79 years for women?
Did you know that homeless people are 13 times more likely to be a victim of violence than the general population?
Did you know that rough sleepers are 35 times more likely to kill themselves than others in the general population?
