– UNDERSTANDING SOCIAL HOUSING
What is Social Housing?
Social homes have affordable rents set to local incomes — providing a genuinely more affordable and secure housing option for people who need it.
Who provides social housing?
Social housing is provided by housing associations and not-for-profit organisations that own, let and manage rented housing and are registered housing providers — like HomeFirst Supported Living.
