CHAPTER

Challenges and Solutions in Affordable and Social Housing

Exploring the distinctions between affordable housing and social housing, this chapter emphasizes the need for an increase in social rent homes as the most affordable option amidst vague definitions of affordable housing. Discussions focus on the history of council housing, maintenance issues, struggles with housing legislation, and the need for more non-market homes to address the housing crisis. Advocating for a shift towards improving rental options, the chapter highlights the challenges faced by the younger generation in achieving affordable home ownership and calls for government intervention to prioritize building safety and quality.
