Nobody Home.

The beauty of Cornwall that drives over 4 million people to visit annually has created over 35,000 empty homes. In traditional fishing villages, whole streets lie untouched, with houses that cost 11 times the average wage. Amidst a national housing crisis, countless families have been evicted to make way for more lucrative holiday lets. Statistically, the region is the second poorest in Northern Europe, with nearly a third of children living in poverty – yet, during the pandemic, over £170 million in grants was handed out to the owners of holiday lets in the area.
