The average British home is empty for 36 nights – more than a month – every year, a study has found.
A poll of 2,000 adults found holidays, weekends away and nights out means the average home is left sitting empty on three nights each month.
On top of that, homes are unoccupied for a further 4 hours and 35 minutes each day thanks to work, socialising and day-to-day errands – the equivalent of almost six days a month or almost 70 days a year.
