ALT A photo of a person sitting on a city pavement next to a sign, with a quote from Dr Ed Kirton-Darling, researcher at the University of Bristol Law School: "It's no secret we're living in a contemporary housing crisis and poor housing and homelessness is causing needless death and illnesses. But the extent of the crisis at the moment is particularly stark. My work looks at where law connects with this crisis - and unpicking the way the law enables the crisis to continue."
