Overview
The organisation provides safe, secure and good quality homes for people who need them most. It works with local authorities to offer an alternative to poor quality and costly private sector accommodation often used for temporary housing.
In plain English, Local Space helps councils house people in better homes. A concept so sensible it almost feels illegal in the modern housing market.

Local Space and Local Authorities
Local Space works with local authorities that need better housing options.
Councils often face pressure to find temporary accommodation for people and families. In many areas, private sector options can be expensive or poor quality. This creates pressure for councils and worse outcomes for residents.
Local Space helps by offering a better alternative. Its homes support councils that want to improve the quality and value of accommodation available to people in housing need.
