Why Haringey Council is building new council homes

Haringey Council has ambitious home building programme to deliver the first new council homes in a generation, with as many as possible built on existing council owned land. Our aim is to build 3,000 new homes in the next decade.&nbsp;Housing is an important priority for Haringey Council as like many other local authorities, we have an acute shortage of affordable homes in the borough. We have almost 12,500 households on our council home waiting list, and many of these are families with young children in overcrowded conditions.&nbsp;<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/commonplace-digital-limited/image/upload/v1678109375/projects/63ecb181d35c0a457375f96f/ho7esd1m97oznjh61zsu.png" class="fr-fic fr-dii" alt="Handing-over the keys to a new council home: Cllr Peray Ahmet (Leader of the Council), Cllr Ruth Gordon (Cabinet Member for Council Housebuilding, Placemaking, and Development ) and Robbie Erbmann (Asst.
