Enfield has a serious and growing housing crisis that the Labour administration is doing little to tackle.

Enfield has an above-average need for social rent homes, but a below-average rate of building them.

Enfield's shameful record on homelessness

We have one of the highest rates of homelessness in the country, and one of the highest usages of temporary accommodation. Around 5000 Enfield children are living in temporary accommodation - a shameful statistic.

Enfield Green Party recognises that much of the blame for this situation lies with governments that have been in power since the 1980s, but there is still much that the council could do but isn't.

Enfield Green Party is calling on the government to provide additional funding to build the types of housing Enfield needs. And for Enfield Council to carry out its own policies on housing, rather than give in to pressure from developers.
