Social Housing Furniture
Share this:
Social housing furniture in the UK refers to providing furniture for tenants in social housing, carehomes, nursing homes provided by local councils or housing associations to ensure a basic level of living standards. It includes a range of furniture items, from essential pieces like beds and sofas to smaller items like soft furnishings and kitchenware. Many providers offer complete furniture packages, often with delivery and installation included.
Social housing furniture is often provided to help alleviate the issue of "furniture poverty," where tenants lack essential furniture items, sometimes due to financial constraints.
Furniture poverty is the inability to access, or afford to buy or maintain, any household furniture or appliance item that is essential for a socially acceptable standard of living. At least 26 per cent of social housing tenants live in furniture poverty - yet only 2 per cent of social homes are let as furnished.
In the social rented sector, it's standard practice for housing providers to take out carpets before new tenants move in - even if they are in perfectly good condition.
