Housing needs survey Jan 2020
We conducted a new Housing Needs Survey in September and October 2019, and the results have now been checked and analysed.  178 survey forms were returned, a very good response rate of 32%.  At the time of the survey a need for 6 affordable rental homes was identified, and 77% of those who answered the relevant question said they would be in favour of a small development of affordable housing for local people.  The full survey can be found here:
