Good Home Network

Join our learning network, bringing local authorities together to make connections, share challenges and drive change to improve the quality of homes.

Supporting local areas to improve the quality of their homes

We believe the key to improving people’s homes is through local, easy-to-use one-stop shops for information and support. We call this a Good Home Hub model.

In partnership with Foundations, we host a learning network to understand, support and disseminate good practice in the development of comprehensive home improvement services across the country.

What is the Good Home Network?

The Good Home Network is an England-wide network for decision-makers and practitioners actively engaged in delivering services whose aim is to reduce the number of non-decent homes and improve poor-quality homes in their areas.  

It is a hub for active learning and connection for places, people and organisations currently exploring ways to improve the quality of life for older and disabled people by addressing the issues they face in their own homes.

The network supports our work to develop Good Home Hubs, which aims to ensure that everyone can live in a safe, warm and accessible home.

The network meets regularly online and comes together for occasional in-person events. Network members are joined by housing sector experts and policymakers, online and in-person, while a growing programme of other activities complements the regular sessions. 

  • How can I find out more about how to support local residents to improve their own homes?
  • What are other local authorities doing to show the impact of their work for local people and how are they promoting the work throughout their area?
  • How can I engage with people working in different local teams – health, adult social care, climate change and sustainability – to make sure people in my area are living in safe and accessible homes? 

These are just some of the kinds of questions that members support each other to answer.
