Starts at Home - Securing Commitment to Supported Housing in a #PlanForHousing webinar

This webinar, for NHF supported housing members, showcased examples of how supported housing providers were part of strategic partnerships with local authorities and the NHS to deliver supported housing to meet need.

Starts at Home Day returned on 30 August 2024 for its 8th year and was a chance to celebrate the positive impact of supported housing on our communities across the country, and to ensure supported housing was recognised as an invaluable part of the housing, health, social care and criminal justice systems.

We need at least 167,000 more supported homes by 2040. The National Housing Federation’s (NHF) Social Housing Renewal campaign asks the government to commit to ring-fenced funding and a strategic approach to supported housing.
