Have your say on Cheshire East Council’s housing strategy for vulnerable and older people

Cheshire East Council is inviting residents to have their say on a new housing strategy for vulnerable and older people.

The proposed strategy sets out the approach and key priorities for ensuring older or vulnerable residents can access the right type of housing across the borough.    

Members of the council’s cabinet agreed the draft strategy at their first online virtual meeting, on 5 May. Now the public are invited to take part in a consultation to determine whether the priorities and actions outlined in the plan are appropriate and robust.

Due to ongoing Covid-19 restrictions, the consultation will be completed via an electronic survey. This can be accessed here https://surveys.cheshireeast.gov.uk/s/VOPHS_Consultation

Before completing the survey, residents can review the 2020 strategy, which shows evidence-based findings around ensuring accommodation needs are met for vulnerable and older residents.

The closing date for the consultation is 13 July. Residents are urged to use this opportunity to have their say.
