I have decided to chose the Housing Crisis as the theme of my poster.
I am currently reading through articles about the crisis itself but also legislation documents.
Having some statistic and numbers on the poster will help to give it more impact. The audience needs to be shocked to take any notice and therefore act.
I have discussed that unfortunately the general public is unable to directly change things and more particularly the current housing legislation. However, the public have the power to get in touch with their MPs/ councils to request a change in this legislation, updating it as currently the definition of overcrowding dates from 1935.
