Jaywick was originally a holiday resort for Londoners but fell into decline when foreign travel took off from the 60`s onwards. The UK has always has a chronic housing shortage so many of the holiday chalets were let out to people on low incomes. Many of the chalets do not meet modern housing standards and when this occurs Social Issues arise. Government money to the area is slow in coming and poor quality standards are also blamed on chalet landlords who simply have no interest in the upkeep of their properties.
