If Walls Could Talk
The issue of unfit housing has never been more important. Alongside our parent company, Kingfisher, we have published a report into unfit housing in the UK, entitled If Walls Could Talk.
If Walls Could Talk finds that some 9.5 million people in the UK (or 18%) feel they live with significant housing issues. Problems range from inadequate heating or insulation, to pests and overcrowding, with the three most common problems being cold, damp, and noise.

To help those experiencing bad housing in the UK and Ireland, B&Q supports charities in our local communities through the grants awarded by the B&Q Foundation and our partnership with Shelter. You can find more on our work with the B&Q Foundation and Shelter via the links below.
If you’d like to lend your voice to campaigns seeking to improve housing issues in the UK you can find more information from our charity partner Shelter.
