The advantage is that you only register once and the scheme allows you to view and bid on available properties for which you are eligible across all of the districts. Home Choice Plus has been developed by a number of Local Authorities and Housing Associations working in partnership. Home Choice Plus is a way of allocating housing and advertising other housing options across the participating Local Authority areas. (Home Choice Plus will also be used for advertising other housing options such as private rents and intermediate rents). This booklet explains how to look for housing across all of the Districts involved in this scheme. Please see website for further information. Who is eligible to join the Home Choice Plus register? • Some people travelling to the United Kingdom are not entitled to Housing Association accommodation on the basis of their immigration status. • You may be excluded if you have a history of serious rent arrears or anti social behaviour.

  • South Worcestershire Development Plan 2016
    HOUSING HOUSING SWDP 13: Effective Use of Land A. To deliver places that are more sustainable, development will make the most effective and sustainable use of land, focusing on: i. Housing density; ii. Reusing previously developed land; and iii. Making only exceptional use of the Best and Most Versatile Agricultural Land. Housing Density B. Housing development in south Worcestershire will make the most effective and efficient use of land, with housing density designed to enhance the character and quality of the local area, commensurate with a viable scheme and infrastructure capacity. C. Housing density will be greater on sites with a high level of accessibility, including sites located in or close to city and town centres, or close to public transport stations. D. The form and density of housing will vary across larger sites, in response to current and future accessibility and other characteristics of each part of the site. Variations in density across a site should be used to develop different character areas. E. Subject to parts B, C and D above, on sites allocated for housing or for mixed use that includes housing, the following broad indications of appropriate average net densities shall apply: i. On sites within the city of Worcester and allocations for more than 100 new dwellings in Droitwich Spa, Evesham and Malvern, development should achieve an average net density of 40 dwellings / ha. ii. On sites within Worcester city centre and the town centres of Droitwich Spa, Evesham and Malvern, development of mainly flatted units should achieve an average net density of 75 dwellings / ha.
