Last week to stand up for Stockwell on housing

There is less than a week left to send in your thoughts about Lambeth's housing strategy. Many residents will no doubt have taken part in the tenants conference on Saturday in the town hall, but if you didn't get a chance, you can still have your say - until Friday 21 November.

There are many problems with housing in Stockwell - from high waiting lists, over crowding figures, homelessness or those on middle to low incomes who cannot afford a place of their own.

Lambeth's new draft Housing Strategy outlines the councils overall priorities for the next five years. Initial discussions have outlines these major challenges:

· improving the supply of dwellings in the borough
· improving neighbourhoods
· improving access to housing and supporting vulnerable people in the borough
· mixed and sustainable communities
· tackling worklessness
· empowering residents.

This is your chance to have your say on the Draft Housing Strategy before it is finalised and published. The consultation period will last until Friday 21 November 2008.
