Housing
Safe, secure housing is vital for good health. Poor housing can affect physical and mental wellbeing. That’s why we’re working with local councils, housing providers and community partners to make homes in south London healthier places to live.
What we’re working on
Improving housing conditions – tackling damp, mould and cold homes
Supporting tenants’ rights – helping residents understand their rights and where to get advice
Joining up services – linking housing, health and social care so people don’t fall through the gaps
Working with landlords – encouraging fairer practices and quicker action on repairs
Our priorities
Reduce the health risks linked to poor housing
Strengthen support for people at risk of homelessness
Build stronger partnerships between housing and health services
