Our strategy includes investment in new homes, improvements to existing homes and neighbourhoods and sets our priorities for the next three years.
A key part of our strategy is supporting the delivery of new and improved housing. We work to prevent people becoming homeless and provide support and advice to meet individual needs.
We continue to make the most of new funding opportunities and innovations working with our partners. We are committed to consulting and working with local communities, finding ways to meet their ambitions.
