An office at the Coast and Country Housing Association headquarters in Redcar, of the 11 people in today, 9 are aged 20 to 34, and 4 of them are still living at home with their parents. It's becoming a national issue. In England alone, a quarter of young workers, almost two million people, have yet to move out to a place of their own. The figures are much higher in some areas, including Castle Point, Essex, Knowsley on Merseyside and Solihull. And almost half of them blame a lack of affordable housing.

-These figures show us two things. Large numbers of young working people are living with their parents, and most of them don't want to.The government says it is addressing the issue with the Help to Buy scheme and more Affordable Homes（.Lewis Thompson is one of those who isbenefiting.

-I'm 26 years old, so I've been saving up many many years now. Only reason I was able to get a house is I managed to get one with 5% deposit.If it wasn't for that, I literally wouldn't be able to move out.

Of the two older workers in this office, one has a 30-year-old son, working and living at home.

-That means basically that at the moment I can't retire, because we have to provide a larger property in order for him to have his own room, to have his own space. And as such we can't downsize.

The homeless charity Shelter says we are creating a "Clipped Wing Generation".

-We've seen a large rise, particularly in recent years, in the number of young adults living at home with their parents. It's now one in four. What we are saying is that young adults, in fact, the offer（？） is you can work hard, you can save hard, but you can still be living as a teenager in your childhood bedroom, and that's because frankly we just haven't been building enough affordable homes, and that's whatpoliticians really got to focus on [that].

At the end of another day, the workers in the office head home. 4 of them to homes they'd like to have moved out of years ago. Gerard Tubb,Sky News, Redcar.
