Take action
Kick racism out of social housing
Kick racism out of social housing
Tell the Regulator of Social Housing to take action on racism Right now, the Regulator of Social Housing is consulting on changes that could help tackle racism in our housing system. Their consultation will end on Tuesday 3 March. The housing emergency is affecting all communities, but Black people and other People of Colour are even more likely than average to be homeless. In fact, Black-led households are almost four times more likely to face homelessness than White-led households.⯠But there is hope. With this public consultation, we have an opportunity to change things.
