Thanet Council was facing a shortage of suitable accommodation for larger families, often leaving them in cramped or unsuitable temporary housing. This impacted children’s wellbeing, privacy, and access to education.
Link Property sourced and secured a large five-bedroom property with the flexibility to be adapted to six bedrooms if required. Although located slightly outside the borough, the property provided the space and security needed to house a family that had been in unsuitable accommodation for some time.

The family was finally able to settle into a stable, spacious home.
Children no longer had to share beds, which had a significant impact on their day-to-day wellbeing.
The space allowed the family to re-establish routines, return to education, and re-engage with normal life.
