Housing should provide a secure foundation for individuals to live the lives they want to live. Finding the right home, in the right place, can be an essential platform for people seeking to support their families and sustain work. Within Sefton, access to suitable, good quality and affordable housing is a key priority for all its residents and communities.
Our Housing Strategy sets out the Council’s vision and aims for housing in the Borough for the next five years. It describes the key priorities affecting the local housing market and what the Council intends to do to help overcome these challenges and create the right conditions to improve housing outcomes for the benefit of local people.
This strategy has been developed through an extensive process of consultation with key partners and other stakeholders and we would like to thank all those who have contributed and helped to develop this strategy. The consultation report can be viewed here

Sefton Housing Strategy - Action Plan and Annual Monitoring Report
The Action Plan outlines the specific procedures and roles of key stakeholders to address the issues detailed in the strategy document. It includes action points, targets, and timelines to address the housing priority topics, while remaining flexible and responsive to market changes, new opportunities, and emerging issues, such as changing legislation and new government policies.
Alongside the action plan, an annual review will track the progress of actions arising from the Housing Strategy, assessing outcomes and success measures related to the key priorities. This monitoring report will highlight successful outcomes, identify areas for improvement, and determine which actions to include or exclude from the plan. Ultimately, this annual monitoring report will ensure the Housing Strategy remains robust and suitable for the needs of Sefton’s residents.
