Description

The Authority is looking to appoint a housing specialist adviser/consultancy to undertake a wide ranging and thorough review to identify how the provision of housing in Worcester can be increased to meet increasing needs. The Authority will expect the consultant to take a holistic view and consider current delivery and good practice in the sector, innovation and how the Authority and strategic partners can do things differently. This will enable future policies to be developed that have a City focus in order to boost supply and increase access and choice of high-quality housing in the City .
