@AmanzeEjiogu and I published a report titled "#Stigma and #SocialHousing in England" last year. This was followed by a #consultation with #stakeholders in the #housing sector. The consultation report & #policybriefing can be accessed via the link below linkedin.com/feed/update/ur…

Today we have been recording a podcast in London with LBC’s Natasha Devon on our gambling related domestic abuse research with Stephanie Morphew and Nicki Clarke @MercyDenedo

We need to call time on social housing tenants being stigmatised & treated as second-class citizens by landlords. Delighted to host @sshscampaign in Parliament to launch their Tackling Stigma Journey Planner to help tenants and landlords work on ending stigma on their estates.

Thanks @FloEshalomi, for highlighting this important issue

@kelda_kelly Thanks Kelly!

Great meeting with Florence Eshalomi MP - strong commitment to tackling social housing stigma. Many have asked to meet her as the new Housing & CLG Committee Chair, so says it all that she met with the tenant-led Stop Social Housing Stigma campaign as an early meeting.
