Notice Title

R0326b Borough leadership to deliver the homes London needs (consultancy support

Notice Description

London Councils is initiating a new work programme to place a strong, borough-led social housing sector at the centre of tackling London's housing challenges. The programme's intended outcome is to develop a resilient social housing sector that complements private-sector development and can attract the financial investment required for sustainable, affordable homes. The objectives of this work programme are: * Significantly grow the proportion of London's affordable housing owned and controlled by the public sector and registered providers. * Develop innovative, long-term funding solutions that allow councils to self-finance large-scale construction. * Promote a radical, positive vision for how local government can lead affordable housing delivery, planning, place-shaping, growth and regeneration. * Create a stronger narrative around housing as a public good and a foundation of a good life, linking this to other policy areas, particularly health, social care, economic development and community cohesion.
