Thursday 12th September @ 6:30 pm – 7:45 pm
The so-called housing crisis makes the spaces in which we live damp, mouldy, insecure and impossible to afford. The housing system prevents vast numbers of families from simply feeling at home, and calling the place they live a place of safety. Austerity and the commodification of housing has turned the domestic into a site of illness, violence, precarity, insecurity, and in some cases death.
We need urgent political action to respond to the public health crisis that health workers are witnessing. This requires rethinking housing beyond commodification and taking action to reclaim it as a public health asset. We need to reclaim housing for health.
It will take a movement, with tenants, health workers and all sectors of society working together to shift the narrative and end the public health crisis in housing. Join us to get involved with the fight for healthy homes!
In this meeting you’ll:
- Find out about the group and our Housing and Health campaign
- Understand what we understand by economic and health inequality,
- Hear about ongoing projects and campaigns,
- Learn how we can fight for housing justice
- Hear from some of the people working in our different campaign areas, and
- Explore the ways you can get involved
