This Month In Social Housing: April 2026
Well, here we are — April. The clocks have sprung forward, the daffodils are doing their level best, and the sector has had quite the month to contend with. Right to Buy has dominated the headlines, with the government confirming a significant overhaul that\’s been welcomed in some quarters and debated vigorously in others. And […]
This Month In Social Housing: March 2026
March has rolled around already, and with it comes that unmistakable sense that the year’s about to properly get going. The mornings are a touch brighter, the coats are (optimistically) a little lighter, and there’s a growing feeling that winter’s finally loosening its grip. But in the world of social housing, March is less about […]
This Month In Social Housing: February 2026
February’s been and gone then, and it’s done that slightly smug thing it does where it’s technically the shortest month of the year, yet somehow still manages to feel… substantial. The New Year’s resolutions are looking a little negotiable, but at least the first proper stretch towards spring is just about visible on the horizon. […]
This Month In Social Housing: January 2026
Blimey — 2026 has barely had time to take its coat off and already it’s cracking on. While most of us are still shaking off the festive fog, coaxing life back into our inboxes and pretending January was always going to be this productive, the social housing sector has wasted absolutely no time getting down […]
This Month In Social Housing: December 2025
And just like that, we’re into January. The decorations are (mostly) down, the out-of-office replies have been retired for another year, and we’re all pretending the festive slowdown didn’t happen quite as abruptly as it did. December may have disappeared in a blur of deadlines, draft budgets and “we’ll deal with that in the new […]
This Month In Social Housing: November 2025
Crikey, December really knows how to make an entrance, doesn’t it? One minute we’re battling fallen leaves and rogue Halloween pumpkins rolling down the street, and the next we’re waking up in pitch-black mornings, wrestling with thermostats, and wondering how mince pies have already infiltrated every supermarket aisle. The Christmas adverts have barely begun their […]
This Month In Social Housing: October 2025
Wow! This year is burning through the days like a November 5th bonfire does bits of old pallets and whatnot. It seems like only yesterday that we were taking down the Chrismast decorations, but in a matter of weeks we’ll be disentangling countless strings of barely functional fairy lights before you can say “Christmas adverts […]
This Month In Social Housing: September 2025
And just like that, October’s here — the sun’s gone into hiding, Starbucks has declared pumpkin spice season open, and somehow there’s already tinsel in Tesco (even though the clocks haven’t gone back yet). The great British summer may be officially over, but the social housing sector hasn’t so much as lifted its foot off […]
This Month In Social Housing: August 2025
August always feels like it vanishes in a flash. Between family holidays, kids making the most of their final weeks off school, and the usual great British mix of sunshine and sudden downpours, the month has raced by. Parliament may still be enjoying its summer jollies and many in the social housing world took some […]
This Month In Social Housing: July 2025
As we step into August, the summer haze is thick in the air, though you\’d be forgiven for thinking it\’s more like autumn as Storm Floris sweeps across the UK. Not quite the sunny month we had in mind—where are the ice cream vans and barbecues? With Parliament in recess and many in the social […]
