Region Portfolio: How effectively do Housing Associations meet BME housing needs?

We reviewed the most recent literature and a sample of inspection reports and analysed performance and lettings data, mapped current and changing BME locations and a undertook a series of stakeholder interviews.

 

Our research looked at

 

• the representation of different BME groups in RSL accommodation
• the differences that specialist BME RSLs offer and their effectiveness 
• the community based services provided by RSLs
• the extent to which housing-led interventions can support the movement of BME households into new areas
• the extent of information sharing on BME housing issues and
• the RSL role in meeting the needs of Gypsy & Traveller communities

 

Our work informed Housing Corporation future research and data collection priorities.
