social housing providers
Councils are addressing housing stock management, supply, and resident support for energy costs and conditions.
Croydon's Housing Assurance Board discussed improving the management of council housing stock and increasing housing supply in September 2026. The board, which oversees organisations responsible for managing and maintaining social housing properties, also addressed ongoing challenges related to homelessness and temporary accommodation, committing to develop further strategies.
Meanwhile, Islington Council's Seasonal Health Interventions Network (SHINE) programme, which supports residents struggling with energy costs and poor housing conditions, helped save an estimated £585,347 on energy bills by April 2026. The initiative also achieved carbon savings of 906 tonnes across the borough, providing energy advice and home visits.
