Housing for Vulnerable People
Meeting the housing needs of the more vulnerable members of our community is a major priority of all local government organisations and their partners in Somerset. Whether young or old, financially excluded or experiencing other forms of inequality, lacking safe, warm and appropriate accommodation potentially has a long-term effect on the health and wellbeing of them and their families.
This section features data and intelligence on topics related to these priorities.
