More social housing is desperately needed across England, campaigners said in an open letter to political party leaders
🏠 When we build social homes, we’re building better lives. We’re building stability. A brighter future.The letter comes as new survey findings from Shelter suggested that almost three quarters of social tenants said they could not afford to live in their local area were it not for their access to social housing.
“The lack of social housing in this country is driving a housing emergency. Across the country, 1.3 million households sit on social housing waiting lists. “Together, we are calling on all political parties to listen to the growing consensus across the country and build a new generation of social rent homes to end the housing emergency.”
The research, from affordable housing builder The Hyde Group alongside others, was based on an analysis of savings and benefits from more than 220,000 social homes provided by six housing associations across England.
