Public Housing in Barnet?
The shortage of social and affordable housing is one of the most pressing problems facing our communities. Is council housing the answer to the crisis? What can councils do to tackle the housing shortage? What should Londoners expect? What’s the solution: housing associations? housing co-ops? mutuals? self-builds? Must regeneration be gentrification?
Come to this open forum to discuss with other members of the housing community – councillors, tenants and campaigners – possible solutions to the current housing situation and what actions can be taken next. Working in groups, this is an opportunity for you to give your views of what needs to be done and by whom.

No sanctions – no targets – action at Wood Green job centre
by Janette Evans When I first got the idea for Barnet Housing Action Group to hold a protest outside the job centre in Wood Green – it was for very personal reasons; my daughter had moved into the hostel at the Y.M.C.A. and I had got to know a few of the young people there […]
