Housing Targets for 2009

 
The Homeless Agency Partnership expect to house 1,000 households in 2009 through the following sources:

 

Source of Housing % Housing No of Households
Local authority and housing association social housing 30% 300
Tenancies given to half of households in current transitional accomodation 19% 190
Tenancies given to half of households in current long-term supported accomodation 16% 160
New mainstream accommodation initiative for homeless people 30% 300
Households assisted into other housing or residential/nursing home care 5% 50
Total 100% 1000
Figures are rounded to the nearest ten
   

The above table does not include access to housing via the private rented sector or the Rental Accommodation Scheme (RAS).  In line with Core Actions 7 and 8 in A Key to the Door, the Homeless Agency Partnership will continue to seek to maximise housing from these sources, in addition to the above targets.
