Social homes being auctioned off in Rochdale! 20,000 people are on housing waiting list and families are told there are “no properties available”. This is a housing crisis. Homes should house people, not be auctioned off #SaveSocialHousing #Rochdale #HousingCrisis

“This is a chance to do regeneration differently... that means using co-operative principles, so people feel genuinely involved in shaping the town’s future. Middleton deserves investment that works for its residents, not around them.” says @RoseMarley1. buff.ly/d9rKvse

👏Great stuff from Steve Coogan at #CoopCongress, talking about how feeling ‘politically homeless’ led him to co‑operativism and supporting @MiddCooperating, which is making a huge difference in its community!

Mould, leaks, rats — this is what @RiversideUK tenants are living with. We’ve reported it. We’ve waited. Still nothing.
We deserve safe homes. Fix it now. 🏚✊

Why wont @RiversideUK meet with us as a tenants union?
Tenants are living with mould, damp & rats! And we’ve come together to demand action.
Housing associations across the UK are working with unions. Why not Riverside?
