'We can’t end homelessness without council homes.'

Ahead of #WorldHomelessDay Shelter Policy Manager Deborah Garvie says it's time for the government to deliver the solution they know England needs 👇🏽

Social housing providers are ready to build... so why the delay?

We support the National Housing Federation in calling for the government to bring forward planned funding for both councils and housing associations to build more social homes.

It's nearly six months since the Renters' Rights Act became law. But the work doesn't stop there - we need to make sure all the elements of this new law are implemented properly. Invite your MP to the Renters' Reform Coalition event on 22nd October so renters can get the most out of this new law 👇🏾

Plans set out today by Angela Rayner to make it easier for councils to keep hold of social homes and buy up existing stock are a good start.

But with more than 1.3m households waiting for a social home the only long term solution is to get councils building.

Right now inadequate local housing allowance is leaving families struggling.

The government must help families homeless in temporary accommodation move into a home by unfreezing LHA in the #AutumnBudget

It couldn't be any clearer.

It's time to invest in the long solutions to homelessness 👉🏾 social rent homes.

Today’s headlines make it clear, we have spent years treating the symptoms of the housing emergency, without addressing its cause – not enough social rent homes.

The government must use the #AutumnBudget to get councils building again.

Loosening those restraints will finally empower ministers to deliver the council housing revolution they've promised. 🏡❤️

A 'gamechanger' for renters? It could be, if properly implemented.

The database must be made publicly available to renters as soon as possible so they have clarity on their landlord's track record and the information they need to challenge unfair rent hikes. 📰 www.independent.co.uk/money/englan...

The government promised to build more genuinely affordable social homes.

Now they might let developers sell them.

84,000 families are already homeless... we can’t afford to lose more social homes.
