SUMMARY:Build the Health Movement for Housing Justice
DESCRIPTION:Skyrocketing housing costs are undermining people’s ability to live stable\, healthy lives. Unaffordable rents force people out of their communities\, entrench poverty\, worsen health inequalities\, and push thousands of families into homelessness each year. \n\n\n\nThis crisis is not inevitable. Before the 1980s\, governments took responsibility for keeping rents affordable and invested at scale in secure\, high-quality council housing. These policies provided stability for millions and helped build strong\, resilient communities. \n\n\n\nWe also know that change is possible today. Recent reforms — including the abolition of Section 21 ‘no-fault’ evictions — were secured through sustained campaigning and show the impact of collective action. But the core issue at the heart of the housing crisis remains unaddressed: affordability. \n\n\n\nThat’s why a broad coalition of housing groups – including Homes for All\, London Renters Union\, Homes for Us Alliance\, and Greater Manchester Tenants Union — have come together to call for a National Housing Demonstration in London in Spring 2026\, demanding: \n\n\n\n\nRent Controls\n\n\n\nPublic investment in a mass council house building programme\n\n\n\n\nOn Thursday 12th March at 6.30pm\, we will be hosting a call to: \n\n\n\n\nFind out more about the strategy of the Homes for Us Alliance\n\n\n\nGet involved in mobilising the health community as part of a growing national network\n\n\n\nJoin the communications group shaping messaging and media interventions\n\n\n\nHelp ensure health justice remains at the heart of the housing movement
