Housing Strategies and Policies

Haringey’s Housing Strategy 2009-2019

This strategy has been developed by the Integrated Housing Board (IHB) as an over-arching policy document. It sets out Haringey’s approach to housing over the next ten years by identifying a vision for housing in the borough and a set of strategic objectives.

The strategy is for stakeholders across the entire spectrum of housing-related activity in the borough, including the Council, registered providers of social housing, developers, private sector landlords, owner-occupiers, residents, and voluntary and community sector providers.

Our vision for housing in Haringey is to create:

Neighbourhoods that people choose to live in with a balance of different types of homes which offer quality, affordability and sustainability for current and future generations.

In order to deliver this vision our five aims are:

1. To meet housing need through mixed communities which provide opportunities for our residents
2. To ensure housing in the borough is well managed, of high quality, and sustainable
3. To provide people with the support and advice they need
4. To make all homes in the borough a part of neighbourhoods of choice
5. To contribute to creating the Greenest Borough

In order to achieve these aims for Haringey our approach will be based on the following principles:

• Partnership between organisations, agencies and residents in the borough
• Strong relationships with government and national agencies (such as the Homes and Communities Agency and Tenant Services Authority) that will get the best deal for Haringey’s residents
• Engagement with residents and communities so that decisions and service improvement are shaped by what they want
