Why homes must be at the heart of recovery - factsheet

01 July 2020

The coronavirus crisis has underlined the need for high quality, well-designed and affordable homes. During the crisis, our relationship with our home has changed dramatically – becoming a sanctuary for many and a prison for some – and home has never been more important to us than it is now.

Our #HomesAtTheHeart campaign is calling for housing to be at the heart of the nation’s recovery. A long-term, once-in-ageneration investment in social housing that provides everyone with a safe, comfortable and affordable
home can be the catalyst for social and economic recovery.

This factsheet contains data on 

  • Life in lockdown – the effects of coronavirus
  • Improving the quality of homes for the future
  • How investment in social housing can make the difference

Homes at the Heart

Throughout the summer and autumn, we are planning a series of media stories, social media campaign activities and targeted engagement with politicians to create a consensus that social housing must be at the heart of our country’s recovery.
