More and better affordable housing.

More and better affordable housing.

How does this impact on Community Wellbeing? Maslows hierarchy of needs notes that the one of the most important basic human needs is a secure and stable base - from which a person can build on their wellbeing needs. In Edinburgh the housing situation is dire, with children across the city living in damp, cold and overcrowded conditions. It is impossible to imagine these children and their parents building on their wellbeing when they are being forced to go home to unsuitable housing. Why should the Committee focus on this as part of their future work? The committee should focus on this because living in safe and appropriate housing is a basic human right that is not being met across Edinburgh.

Points

Build and improve houses across Edinburgh.
