Who gets social housing? Quick fact check - 81 per cent of new social housing lets go to white British renters. 90 per cent go to UK nationals. Simply not true that immigrants "jump" the social housing queue.
The Skills Within have provided free meals this winter at the @Hornbeamcafe as part of our Community Living Rooms Network. Sign our petition urging the Government to extend funding for this work 👉 orlo.uk/F2k9M #thecrisisisntover

Pleased to announce I’ve been elected as Co-Chair of the All Party Parliamentary Group for Ending Homelessness. This is an issue I feel very passionately about and I look forward to working with my co-chair @BobBlackman and @crisis_uk to end homelessness.
This Christmas we are celebrating our partnership between our National Homelessness Property Fund 2 & @CapitalLets for providing high-quality homes with wrap-around support, giving tenants the stability they need to rebuild their lives. About our fund: ow.ly/KlGk50Qf1tQ
Research we co-funded with @londoncouncils @CapitalLets in summer showed how urgently needed this was, with the supply of homes for homeless households drying up (and tenants’ difficulty paying the rent being a contributor.) trustforlondon.org.uk/research/suppl… (2/x)
Tomorrow at 2pm, #AssemblyHousing will meet as part of its ongoing investigation into Temporary Accommodation in #London. Guests include: - @Kwajotweneboa - @Z2K_trust - @ItsGroundswell - @EnfieldCouncil - @CapitalLets & more. Further info ⬇ london.gov.uk/who-we-are/wha…
Earlier this month some of our housing partners joined our Housing Partner Forum to exchange best practice in delivering quality housing & support to tenants. We were delighted @stephenctimms joined us online as we discussed issues around temporary accommodation & homelessness.
Our new report with The Empty Homes Network shows the number of long-term empty homes has increased nationally by nearly 10% over the past five years, the equivalent of just over 1% of the country’s housing stock. 1/3 local.gov.uk/about/news/emp…
We've written an open letter to the Home Secretary @SuellaBraverman alongside 14 other organisations including @centrepointuk @CIHhousing & @StMungos. shorturl.at/hrxU6
I often hear complaints from people trying to get houses built that local councillors block it. So yesterday, we ran a panel discussion to understand why, and how the housing sector can turn councillors into champions for new housing. Here's what we learned:
🆕The Renters (Reform) Bill will receive its second reading on Monday 23 October, it has been confirmed. Read the full response from our CEO @BeadleBen: 🔗nrla.org.uk/news/confidenc…
The APPG held a meeting on the Healthy Homes principles with @LordNigelCrisp. 🌱 Need for mandatory standards to ensure healthier homes for all. 🏢 Emphasis on link between health and housing. 💡 Calls for better integration of health considerations in planning. Key Takeaways👇
@NationwideFdtn @CapitalLets @michaelgove @HousingAPPG @HomelessAPPG Great the report calls for minimum standards, to embed the #HealthyHomes principles in conversions: "these standards would level the playing field in terms of costs, as currently developers can and do lower standards in order to save on costs" #housing tcpa.org.uk/resources/heal…
This is absolutely about doing conversions better @NationwideFdtn. That's why the Healthy Homes Principles underpin the proposed, very considered approach. It's also a travesty that empty properties lie redundant when they could be carefully repurposed to increase supply.
@CapitalLets @michaelgove @HousingAPPG @HomelessAPPG Thanks, we'll read it with interest. We support making use of existing buildings, but there are so many cases in which it's been done badly, so we need to make sure we do better.
@NationwideFdtn @CapitalLets @michaelgove @HousingAPPG @HomelessAPPG Absolutely agree. I made the same point two weeks ago; reassured by the involvement of Ben Clifford from UCL in the Capital Letters report.
@CapitalLets Here's a 🧵 as to why the #HealthyHomes principles are so urgently needed x.com/callwayrosalie…
It’s easy to get lost in statistics and forget that this is people’s lives we are talking about. Check out our blog about why the #HealthyHomes principles need to be made mandatory in law #HousingCrisis #LevellingUp tcpa.org.uk/healthy-homes-…
@BobBlackman @Ben_Everitt @FloEshalomi @HousingAPPG We are grateful to @CapitalLets and @DrBenClifford for their support for the inquiry, and everyone who gave evidence and provided case studies. If you would like any further information or would like to be added to our mailing list please get in touch at [email protected]
