Conduct review of abandoned buildings and potential to refurbish into shelters
We call on the Government to work with property owners, county councils, town councils and building companies/charities to conduct a review of abandoned buildings. The review should consider whether these buildings can be refurbished into shelters for the homeless, and for children under 18.

Housing repairs delayed by social landlord
A resident has experienced over a year of delays for kitchen flooring work through RHP, including multiple appointment cancellations and incomplete work. The kitchen floor remains unfinished and unusable.
Commission an independent inquiry into social care and social work
