Women Ageing Well

A home of her own. Securing housing for women at any age - social, rented or owned

 

Over the next 18 months, the Women Ageing Well campaign will build a community of allies and support, and will lobby the NSW and Federal Government to:

  • Lower the qualifying age for priority social housing in NSW, currently 80 years of age
  • Increase the supply of social housing by an extra 5,000 homes a year for the next 10 years through inclusion of social housing infrastructure into the NSW Government’s post-pandemic investment
  • Provide adequate and sustainable funding to meet demand for homelessness services, and ensure that they respond to the needs of culturally diverse communities, and women and children who need them
  • Improve protections for and assistance to renters by amending the NSW legislation to increase protections for vulnerable women of all ages
  • Increase funding of specialist women’s refuges and other front-line services dealing with violence against women from the Commonwealth/State fund, based on policy and reform proposals that put the safety and well- being of women and children first.

Together with our feminist partners WEL will also address the key policies driving women into social, emotional and financial insecurity.
