Telford & Wrekin Supplementary Planning Document: Homes for All

Telford & Wrekin SPD COVER

This Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) sets out Telford & Wrekin Council's long term vision to ensure that all new homes are accessible, adaptable and well-designed to enable people to live independently and comfortably. This includes:

  • Providing greater clarity about the need for and the different types of accessible and adaptable housing, and supported and specialist housing sought in the borough;
  • The building standards that apply to accessible and adaptable, supported and specialist housing;
  • Guidance on the location of accessible housing on development sites;
  • Design and site selection guidance for supported and specialist housing schemes; and
  • Setting out how the Council will work with partners to deliver supported and specialist housing.

The SPD should be read alongside the Council’s Supported and Specialist Housing Strategy, produced by the Housing LIN’s consultancy team.
