Housing

The homes we live in play a big role in shaping health. Health and care services are becoming increasingly aware of the crucial role housing plays in delivering better outcomes for health.

A healthy home is:

• Affordable and offers a stable and secure base.
• Able to provide for all the household needs
• A place where we feel safe and comfortable
• Connected to community, work and services

Trafford partners are working together to ensure property conditions improve, more affordable housing are developed and homelessness is reduced to improve the overall health and wellbeing of Trafford residents.
