Ready to Move on Leaflet Ready to move on ? Wolverhampton City A guide to what to find and where to find it This guide was put together by Martin Evans, Rob Daniel, Jay Solzbérg & Colin Murphy. Graphics and illustration were put together by Laura Wells. With support from P3, Wolverhampton City Council, Supporting People (Housing Related Support). 2 Foreword Welcome to your guide to help you when you move into your home This guide was written and created by the Mini MOPP client involvement group in 2010. The guide provides useful information for people that are moving on in the city, covering local facilities and key services in each neighbourhood across Wolverhampton. It also lists useful telephone numbers that might be needed when setting up and maintaining a new home. The guide has been developed to give you some simple yet handy hints to make your new accommodation and your life a little easier. Covering things from what to do when you get a property, right through to being a courteous neighbour. We have listed many of the local major services that you might need (i.e. Dentists, Launderettes, Doctors and Libraries etc.). Often libraries will be used for reading, book loans, CD’s and DVD’s. However, remember that most libraries now have internet access where you will be able to apply online for benefits or find out about support. You may also be able to get someone to help you if you aren’t confident using a computer. The Mini MOPP is not recommending any of the services, facilities or provisions contained in this guide. They are for reference only. We always suggest that you seek legal advice before entering into any legal agreement. Thanks for taking the time to read this guide. We hope you The information contained in this guide was find it useful. accurate at the time of print. (September 2013) 3 Step One - Getting your Accommodation n o i t a Congratulations!!! d o You’ve got the keys to your new property... m m o c c Now what do you do? This is a brief guide with tips and A advice to help you set up your new home r u o y Now that you are getting a property (house, flat, house share etc…) you may g n want to be thinking about making an application to the Local Discretionary i t t Grant Scheme (LDGS). From April 2013 Community Care Grants no longer e exists. What was known as the Social Fund which was administered by the G - Department for Work & Pensions (DWP) is now managed the Local Authority. e In Wolverhampton the LDGS provides goods (e.g. white goods and furniture) n O and services (e.g. Foodbank and repair schemes). Cash awards may be p considered in exceptional circumstances. The Local Discretionary Grant e t Scheme in Wolverhampton will be reviewed after 12 months, so may be S subject to change in April 2014. For more information telephone (01902) 4 558400. Step Two - Moving In Before you sign for your keys, make sure you ask any and all questions before signing on the dotted line, because if you have any concerns it may be harder to sort out after you have already signed. Also when signing, ask for a contact number if any faults or repairs should come up. DON’T lose this number, you will need it should anything go wrong (see Step 4 Maintaining your property). You may be thinking furniture. There are a number of furniture projects in the city where you can buy used furniture. • BDFS CIC, building 6, Unit 8, Stanmore Industrial Estate, WV15 5HR.

You may find that it does not cost much more to buy items new than it would to get them second hand. The bonus of buying new, if you can afford it, is that the items will normally come with a 12 month guarantee. Some places will offer delivery for a small fee. Alternatively, for a small fee Community Transport will be able to pick up and deliver what you want, including things that you may already have and need to move too.

  • Extra Care Housing and Regeneration in Wolverhampton
    05.11.2010 Case Study no. 51 Housing Learning and Improvement Network Housing LIN Extra Care Housing and Regeneration in Wolverhampton This case study describes the housing led regeneration of a specific disadvantaged area of Low Hill in Wolverhampton, which includes 208 new homes including a 64 bed Extra Care apartment scheme and day centre for older people built in the heart of the development. Prepared for the Housing Learning and Improvement Network by Maureen Bradley, Director of Care and Support Accord Housing Association, and Shaun Fielding, Land and Partnership Manager Keepmoat Homes. Background Built in the 1920s, the estate had been in serious decline since the early 1990s. Local manufacturing jobs had disappeared, people left the area and there were few owner occupier properties. The condition of many of the homes had deteriorated and the estate found itself in the worst 1% of areas according to the Indices of Multiple Deprivation. In 2007 the number of elderly people living in Wolverhampton was estimated as over 46,100 with the average life expectancy increasing and looking to continue increasing. The drivers for development of Extra Care Housing and a new day centre within the regeneration included: • The identified need to provide intensive 24 hour care services for frail older people in the north of the city, as a direct alternative to residential care • The presence of an existing day service for older people, the Chris Laws Day Centre, in a Council owned building on the eastern edge of the Showell Park development • The closure of the Dale House Residential Home in Showell Circus and the desire of the local community to see the site reused for older people’s housing 1 Following extensive lobbying by local members of the community Wolverhampton City Council established the New Low Hill Partnership Group (NLHPG) to focus resources on trying to lift Low Hill.
