Thank you to these member organisations who have already submitted their EDI data tools to the National Housing Federation 2023 collection. There's just one week to go until the deadline! Simon Nunn Jo Allen Kevin Garvey Sarah Finnegan Kate Henderson
Have you completed the National Housing Federation member survey on homelessness prevention? Get in touch if you haven't! housing.org.uk/news-and-blogs…
The Energy Bill Support Scheme Alternative Fund has closed. We urgently need govt to re-open this & extend the deadline I’ve written in The Times and The Sunday Times that it’s wrong to leave the vast majority of people the fund was created for without the support they need thetimes.co.uk/article/too-ma…
The vast majority of people who the £400 discount fund was created for will miss out on the support they are owed. Check Kate Henderson's thread below to find out why National Housing Federation and other organisations wrote to Department for Energy Security and Net Zero to ask for the deadline to be extended.
Submissions to the National Housing Federation EDI data collection are still coming in from housing associations across England. A huge thank you to those who have already submitted. The more data the better, so if you would like to get involved then please let me know - there's still time!
Shocking data from Shelter & Chartered Institute of Housing We urgently need government to restore Local Housing Allowance (LHA) rates to at least 30% of market rents to increase housing affordability for low-income households Restoring LHA rates is vital to preventing and relieving homelessness
