MANCHESTER SOCIAL HOUSING COMMISSION
Aim:
To co-create an evidence base and a set of practical and financially robust recommendations for increasing the availability of ecologically sustainable social housing across the City of Manchester within the next 5-10 years.
Objectives:
-
Synthesise an evidence base for understanding: the past and current state of social housing in the city (e.g. stock, scale, quality, community led housing), and the city’s present and future housing need.
-
Gather and synthesise knowledge from across the UK (and internationally where relevant) through desk-based research, knowledge sharing workshops, and expert submissions focused on how to achieve and develop the Six Key Proposals put forward by the Social Homes for Manchester Coalition.
-
Provide specific, actionable, and creative recommendations on delivering the above outcomes within the short to medium term in a financially viable way.
