Funding to Give Social Housing Residents a Voice (England)

Not-for-profit organisations with social housing sector experience can apply for a share of £500,000 in funding to deliver training and support for social housing residents in England to help them speak up and raise issues with their landlords.

The funding will help organisations to offer residents a range of accessible ways in which they can learn, such as basic (online) information about opportunities and rights, local training provision, and free e-learning on key resident empowerment themes to support their effective engagement with landlords.

The funding is made available by the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities through the Resident Opportunities and Empowerment programme which will run from autumn 2022 to spring 2025.

Applications from consortia are welcome.

The deadline for applications is 11:59pm on the 2nd October 2022.
