Councillors in Middleton have raised concerns after social homes in Langley were put up for private sale and are calling on Riverside Housing to provide details and re engage with the council rochvalleyradio.com/news/local-new…

Langley deserves community not corporate. 🏠 #SaveLangleyHomes #CommunityNotCorporate #HomesBeforeProfit @AndyBurnhamGM @elsieblundell

Huge thanks to @CllrMeredith and others for standing up and raising concerns about the sale of social homes in Langley. Residents are watching and it matters We’ll keep campaigning for transparency and to protect 2–3 bed family homes in a borough where ~20,000 are waiting

Cllr Daniel Meredith says there was no proper collaboration with the council before auction. In a housing crisis, this isn’t good enough. The community deserves answers🏠 @AndyBurnhamGM @elsieblundell

Riverside say the Langley homes were too costly to repair and funds will be reinvested. But most were 2–3 bed family homes, in a borough where ~20,000 people are waiting for social housing. Residents say elderly tenants asked for repairs for years.
