Still time to take part in the Highland Council Housing Need & Demand survey

The Highland Council is calling on local householders who haven’t already completed the Highland Council Housing Need & Demand survey to take part now. The survey will allow the Council to better understand the housing circumstances and needs of local households so that a good range of housing options can be delivered in the future. The results will help the Council plan for new housing and housing services, making sure the needs of all residents and communities are met.

Housing & Property Committee Chair, Cllr Glynis Campbell Sinclair said: “The Highland Council, as part of its commitment to meeting the ‘Highland Housing Challenge’, encourages residents across Highland to complete the Highland Housing Need & Demand Survey, this will ensure a robust and accurate data set is captured for all types of housing need and not just Council/rental demand. To capture this as accurately as possible, we need to speak to residents across Highland, of all ages (over 16yrs old) and living in all types of housing, to identify what housing is needed across Highland communities for the years ahead."

To take part, respondents should be aged over 16 and be a main householder, and all survey responses will be for research purposes only and it will not be possible to identify individual residents from the responses. Research Resource are registered under the Data Protection Act and all responses will be completely confidential.

Telephone interviews are ongoing will continue until Friday 7 November 2025.

The online survey is open until Friday 7 November 2025, and can be found here www.researchresource.co.uk/AJHighlandHNDA.html (external link)
