Online survey consultation, key points we raised were

• People in Solihull tell us that Housing and Healthcare need to work better together. Housing need to ensure that they are considering the different offer from healthcare across Solihull, and the accessibility to medical letters which need to be paid for, and how this can affect people on lower incomes.
• This consultation has only been made available online with users requiring an account to submit a response. We feel that this is limiting the number of people who are able to respond which is in turn limiting how well this consultation represents the views of the people of Solihull. People in need of housing or homeless people may be less likely to have ease of access to the internet which may mean people who are directly affected by this consultation are unable respond. It is also disappointing to see that the strategy document is only available in its current format. Both the survey and strategy document should also be provided in more accessible formats in order to receive feedback from individuals with additional sensory and language needs. It should be a priority to make consultations accessible to as many people as possible. This will ensure that the final strategy is able to meet the needs of as many people as possible within Solihull.
