ALT Text: Dear Secretary of State, The Death of Awaab Ishak and social housing standards. We are writing to you as the Homes for Us Alliance, a coalition of grassroots organisations, charities, and tenants union, who have come together to fight for more and better social housing. We ask for your response to a number of specific questions included below, and to meet with you to discuss these matters further. While the terrible death of Awaab Ishak was a tragedy, it is not an isolated case. Each organisation in our Alliance has seen conditions like those suffered by the Ishak family in homes up and down the country. Each has heard tenants raise concerns about the safety of their homes and been similarly ignored. Earch has seen how marginalised communities face discriminatory treatment and worse conditions with the housing systme. Each feels strongly that our broken housing model has created a public health crisis in which there are likely many more Awaas who we simply do not know about.
