Housing Strategy Action Plan 2024-25

What will success look like in 2028? 

This theme will focus on our homeless prevention offer, by 2028 we will prevent homelessness and end rough sleeping, wherever possible. 

A review of our rough sleeping offer will have developed a new internal delivery model. New accommodation pathways for rough sleepers will be introduced and a new data collection model will be in operation to inform our strategic approach. 

We will have an enhanced accommodation offer, with specialist provision for vulnerable groups, including young people, care leavers, ex-offenders and those experiencing domestic abuse. This will be supported by new ways of working that will continuously improve our service.

Partnerships will remain crucial to our offer, with existing relationships strengthened and new networks explored. 

Key Priorities 

• Review our approach to end rough sleeping
• Improve our accommodation offer in the borough
• Strengthen our collaborative partnerships to tackle homelessness
• Increase support for the mental health & wellbeing of our residents
• Refresh the Market Position Statement to identify future specialist need
