The Brief also features an article on Section 106 properties and the challenges faced by Registered Providers in taking them on. Additionally, the issue discusses furniture poverty and the work being done over the past 35 years to encourage landlords to provide essential furniture and white goods for tenants.
The issue reminds readers that they are working with some of the most deprived and vulnerable people in society, and suggests that with a committed group of people, social problems can be solved.
