Theresa May will today deliver a speech at the National Housing Federation conference about erasing the sigma attached to social housing.

Design & Build UK received a comment from Brian Cronin, group chief executive at Your Housing Group, who said:

“Like the government we want to change the nature and perception of the social housing sector, by creating property journeys for residents, which are more attuned to the lives they lead. Having a good quality rented home, managed by a professional dedicated landlord, can create a more flexible, less onerous tenure, at a lower cost for the tenant. Our aim is for our residents to be proud to rent. We’re investing over £50million in the next five years in our social housing offering and we’re committed to improving the professional landlord service we provide.”
