Exploring the housing needs of migrant workers in Harlow and Broxbourne : Executive summary

Scullion, LC; Morris, GJ

Abstract

It was recognised that, since 2004, a large number of Central and Eastern European
migrants had moved into Harlow and Broxbourne. To meet the challenge of providing
responsive services, the overall aim of this study was to enhance intelligence in
relation to CEE migrant communities, focusing specifically on housing needs and
experiences.
The study was commissioned by Harlow District and Broxbourne Borough Councils in
January 2010 through the Migration Impacts Fund. The study was conducted by Salford Housing & Urban Studies Unit (SHUSU) at the University of Salford. The study was greatly aided by research support from a number of community interviewers. The project was managed by a steering group composed of officers representing Harlow District and Broxbourne Borough Council. The study involved a survey of 370 CEE migrants and consultation with 7 key
stakeholders and service providers.
