The Mayor has a strategic role in increasing the number of homes built in London, but local councils are responsible for directly delivering housing to residents. You can apply for housing from your local council, or write to your councillor, Assembly Member or MP about a specific issue.
Solving the housing crisis is a marathon, not a sprint, but the Mayor is doing everything in his power to increase the number of genuinely affordable homes in our city. This includes building new council homes, and he recently launched his Building Council Homes for Londoners programme, which offers funding and other support to councils to help them to build more council homes.
