Irish Wheelchair Association calls on people with disabilities to register their housing needs with local councils.
Irish Wheelchair Association (IWA) recently launched a new and innovative housing initiative to inform and educate people with disabilities about the benefits of applying for social housing. Operation Sign-Up aims to encourage and support individuals who wish to live in their own homes, but cannot do so from their own resources, to apply for social housing through their local City and County Councils. Operation Sign-Up provides people with disabilities with the relevant and necessary information required to apply for social housing. The new housing website, www.iwa.ie/house is an accessible and easy to follow microsite, which includes a step-by-step guide to applying for social housing in the area in which the individual wishes to live.
