Housing Strategy 2020 to 2036

Our  Housing Strategy for 2020 to 2036 [6MB]  was adopted on 25 March 2021.

The Housing Strategy sets out the council's approach for delivering strategic housing priorities. It explains the range of actions that we intend to take, in partnership with relevant partners and stakeholders.

The strategy also explains how we intend to deliver the council's vision through two key priorities:

• enable every resident to have access to a home that meets their needs
• reduce homelessness 

This strategy sets out the local and national context, which, alongside the council's strategic vision, frame our priorities and the actions and interventions detailed in our robust Housing Strategy Delivery Plan.

This strategy should be read alongside the following council strategies:

• West Berkshire Vision 2036 (2023) [4MB]
• West Berkshire Council Strategy 2023 to 2027

• Preventing Homelessness and Rough Sleeping Strategy 2020 to 2025
