Housing plays a central part in people’s lives. We all need and deserve a safe, decent and affordable home to provide the stable foundation for everything else that we want to achieve for ourselves and our families, a home that gives us the secure, warm, dry haven we all need. When we fail to provide that, the impacts on individuals and society as a whole can be severe and long lasting, as we see all too clearly in our work to tackle homelessness and rough sleeping.
For a place like Greater Manchester to be successful in the twenty first century, we need to make the connections between housing and our overall vision for our future. A Greater Manchester Vision for Housing has been approved by the Mayor and our ten councils and sets out our ambitions for change and tackling the housing crisis. The Vision provides a framework for our forthcoming Greater Manchester Housing Strategy which will be published later in the year.
