We now have over 10,300 customers on the Housing Register, with approximately 3300 customers bidding for properties on a regular basis. Only 1134 Council properties became vacant last year (1.04.20 – 31.03.21), which is considerably lower compared to the previous year when we had 1623 properties. The average number of bids received for each property is 101 and waiting times have substantially increased, even for those homeless and in urgent housing need. We ask that you consider alternative housing options if these are available to you, which may include. • Renting a private property • Renting a Housing Association property • Home ownership/affordable home ownership • A mutual exchange if you are a secure tenant Visit what are my housing options on our website for further information. *Figures quoted correct as at 31.03.21 Affordable Home Ownership in Wigan Borough Wigan Council’s Affordable Homes Scheme is now available on several new housing developments across the borough.

The charge will be determined by your own individual financial circumstances. What is Sheltered Accommodation? Sheltered accommodation could suit you if you want to live within a scheme in your own home, with your own front door but with the company of other residents, should you want this. To give you peace of mind there is support in place that can be accessed 24/7 via a Scheme manager or a response service. We want sheltered accommodation to be a lively place for residents and the local community where our resident’s skills are celebrated, and lives enriched to keep people living independently and well for longer. We have social events that you can access and there are no rules on when you come and go from the scheme. IHM Charge – what does this cover? To cover the cost of the communal areas and to ensure your security a management fee applies in sheltered accommodation schemes.
