So proud to be shortlisted for the Public Affairs Campaign award at the 2026 @cipr.co.uk Excellence Awards. The recognition reflects years of work to help secure £40bn+ of long‑term investment in affordable homes, enabling the sector to deliver the #SocialHomes the country desperately needs.

Last week we co‑hosted a roundtable with @rcpsych.bsky.social and Look Ahead on supported housing and mental health care. A shortage of supported housing is driving delayed discharge, readmissions and pressure across services. It must be treated and funded as a core part of mental health care.

We strongly welcome the Renters’ Rights Act, the biggest overhaul of landlord & tenant law in decades. No fault evictions cause untold upheaval & put low income families at risk of #homelessness Housing associations are working hard to build the #SocialHomes families need.

Latest figures show child homelessness is at a record high, with the number of households in temporary accommodation doubling in a decade and 68,000 households newly homeless in 2025. Housing associations are working to deliver the homes desperately needed to end this crisis.
