As part of the Local Government Association‘s council housing campaigning work, it is putting a focus on how building more council housing is vital to achieving government’s 300,000 homes a year target, and what challenges councils are facing in building more council homes.
As part of this work the Local Government Association is inviting councils to submit case studies to them about their council housing. The case studies will aim to show the best examples of council housing from across the country. The LGA also welcomes case studies that look at how councils are adapting their existing housing stock to meet the needs of their residents.
The case studies will aim to look at how council housing is:
- improving local residents’ health and wellbeing
- connecting communities and cater for their needs
- being more climate friendly
- improving the surrounding environment
- improving local job prospects
- improving the local economy
- giving people a safe, secure place to call home
Case studies will be hosted on the LGA’s website and may be used on the Association’s social media channels and in its national media stories.
For more information or to submit a case study, please email ben.murray@local.gov.uk.
