Lots in the news about people making desperate attempts to seek refuge in the UK in tiny boats. And lots of pretty awful commentary about people seeking a better life for them and their families. So here are a few things social landlords are doing to help #RefugeesWelcome /1

Keen for detail on First Homes and Community Infrastructure Levy to ensure a similar number of affordable properties are built as with S106. Communities work best with mix of tenures. Concerned this will end affordable homes to rent being the norm in future estates.

Glimpse into complexity of #roughsleeping, the unexpectedly positive difference made by lockdown in @cityoflondon - and thoughtful views on what happens next. Whole @pollymweston series tells untold stories of place through people. So @placeshapers https://t.co/GBQOmRzJwf
