More funding for housing choice

Funding announced by Housing Minister Iain Wright will develop the services of the Greater Manchester pilot scheme, Pinpoint, which launched in July.

Pinpoint offers housing choices across Greater Manchester and the increased funding will enable them to offer additional features, including a sub-regional accessible housing register.

The register will help disabled people across the Greater Manchester region get the housing they need, and enable social landlords to make the best use of their adapted and accessible housing.
