Annual housing report 2021/22

The annual housing report provides a snapshot of the Council's performance between 1 April 2021 and 31 March 2022.

In April 2021, we were emerging from the more severe restrictions of COVID-19. However, service delivery was still impacted by the COVID-19 virus. This resulted in a reduction in what we were able to do while following government guidance and catching up on planned works and improvements. As the year progressed, it was positive to be able to slowly get back out into our communities and support residents.

If you have any questions about the annual report, the way housing services are delivered, or you want to know more about how you can help shape housing services, please contact us by emailing residentengagement@great-yarmouth.gov.uk.
