Housing charity Shelter today launches a new campaign, ‘Fight For Home’, created by Who Wot Why, which shows the unfiltered truth behind the national housing emergency. The campaign was created on the back of new research from Shelter showing that 1 in 3 in Britain (34%) - some 17.5m people - are impacted by the housing emergency.

The ‘Fight for Home’ campaign centres on a film showing real people impacted by the housing emergency voicing their stories. It is directed by Independent Films’ director of Bafta-winning ‘Rocks’, Sarah Gavron and Anu Henriques, and set to a track written and composed by the award-winning rapper, singer, and songwriter, Wretch 32.

The work breaks in England and Scotland on 26 May and runs for a month, with a second burst of activity planned for October. It will be delivered across TV, OOH, press, digital and social, and complemented by an integrated content partnership with VICE Media. All media was planned and bought by Yonder Media.
