Great to hear about this key research into providing affordable private rented sector homes.
Solutions need to be systemic and innovative, and we're excited to keep working together to drive change.
With the expertise of Homes England, @NationwideFdtn, @crisis_uk, British Property Federation, National & Local Government, @HomewardsUK, @Rentstart, London Councils & academia we’re working on tangible recommendations to help the PRS in tackling the UK's country's housing crisis

19% of UK households live in rented homes. This huge, often overlooked, sector can help us create more affordable housing. Yesterday’s roundtable with multi-sector experts aimed to identify how – we’ll be sharing recommendations soon.

This #WorldHomelessnessDay our partners recognise the importance of increasing the supply of social housing.
In Pula they are leading the way with a Housing First Model to provide homes for the most vulnerable. The first of its kind in Croatia.

When we met Seb he'd been sleeping rough for years and had a heroin addiction. We helped him complete rehab, find his own place & he now works helping others sleeping rough.
We're so proud of Seb 💙 with the right support, anyone can recover from homelessness

👏 Brilliant opening plenary at the 18th Research Conference on #Homelessness.
Bálint Misetics suggests a new conceptualisation of homelessness:
💬'Homelessness is not about who someone is, it is about what someone has.
The gap between the cost of housing and available income.'

Housing is the number one public concern in OECD countries. Why and how to fix it? I suggest some answers in my annual reports including on the affordable housing crisis.

3.7m homes in England failed to meet the decent homes standard in 2021, putting the health of millions at risk.
To prevent unhealthy homes, addressing health inequalities must be central to housing policy, and @theTCPA's Healthy Homes Principles are key: nationwidefoundation.org.uk/…
Fantastic day visiting @agile_homes. Building beautiful, affordable and green homes where they are needed most!
Plus a training programme for prisoners and ex offenders
