1 story · 1 council

Lewisham Council is enhancing its housing and refugee services with new ICT systems to manage applications and accommodation.

Lewisham Council's Mayor and Cabinet approved new information and communications technology (ICT) systems for housing services in February 2026. One system specifically addresses housing needs and refugee services, aiming to enhance service delivery and regulatory compliance. It will support applicant assessments, temporary accommodation management, housing registers, lettings, and complex case management within the borough.

There are no upcoming discussions or decisions on housing needs and refugee services currently scheduled. The topic generally refers to services local authorities provide to address housing requirements and support refugees, which the new Lewisham system is designed to facilitate.
