Money Box Live: Social Housing

Money Box Live asks who qualifies for social housing, how it works and why it sometimes doesn't.

New analysis shows that some parts of England have waiting lists for social housing that exceed 100 years.

Felicity Hannah is joined by Jasmine Basran of the housing charity Crisis, and Alastair Smyth of the National Housing Federation.
