SUPPORTING HOUSE SWAP WALES Mindful of the need for many residents to downsize as a result of the ‘bedroom tax’ we have joined forces with Cadwyn and Linc Housing Associations to back the creation of the House Swap Wales project on Facebook. Essentially a series of countybycounty Facebook groups – eg: House Swap Cardiff, House Swap Wrexham etc – House Swap Wales is aimed at social housing tenants who need to move due to welfare reforms including the bedroom tax, or who simply want to move for other
reasons. It provides a simple and readily accessible online platform for residents to advertise their own properties free of charge, find out about potential properties they could move to, and facilitate the moves themselves.
