Over the last 18 months James Gregory and Andrew Lymer have been developing a programme of work exploring the relationship between housing tenure and individual wellbeing. This seminar will present the thinking and motivation behind their research, before presenting survey and interview results from social tenant and shared owners in the South East, with further evidence from social tenants and people applying for social housing in the South West.

More details can be found at www.birmingham.ac.uk/research/activity/social-policy/chasm/events/2018/housing-and-wellbeing.aspx

The event will look at the issue of local tax and spending powers that is assuming new importance – especially in England’s major cities like Birmingham, Manchester and London, which are at the vanguard of devolution. New ‘combined authorities’ are taking on additional responsibilities over skills, transport, and local economic strategies and are pushing for further tax and spending powers. And, as 100% business rates retention pilot area, the revenues of councils in the West Midlands increasingly depend on how well local business rates and council tax revenues perform. The aim is greater powers and additional local retention of tax revenues will incentivise and empower local government to improve services and boost the local economy.
