And there you have the company's comment - no figures, but this should bring the stock into focus once again.

Another government u-turn. Great news here, but aren't they a useless bunch. This government couldn't follow through on going to the toilet if someone complained that it wasn't appropriate. Come back someone with backbone!
Anyway, if this doesn't unblock their pipeline of developments then nothing will.

Cannot even buy 5000 online so there is little or no stock out there and NMS here is only 10,000 so if they Rns this good news who knows what it could do.

I'm sure when they announced the cap the shares were trading around 9-10p and tanked that day because of the news so I do not see why the price cannot recover now alebit not in 5 minutes.

Probably a 2+2=5 situation but Ashley House certainly own a chunk of land in Scarborough.

Theresa May performs major U-turn on plans to cap housing benefit

[first_things] 25/10/2017 14:08

I think the company may have to issue an RNS at some point as the news flow looks significant!


I wonder if Home Group are working with Ashley House?



"Home Group invests £50m in supported housing following LHA announcement

One of the UK’s largest housing associations has announced £50m of capital investment in supported housing following Theresa May’s U-turn over the Local Housing Allowance (LHA) cap."

"The three schemes, in Southampton, Calderdale and Scarborough, have been on hold since 2016, but development is now expected to begin from March 2018."

It's been picked up by one or two people but ASH is a quiet stock these days.

You need to contact the company otherwise they just might let this pass by unless
they plan to construct a Rns for tomorrow morning.

This is massive news for Ashley House and not been picked up by the market.

The house broker forecast that Ashley House will make £1.8 million profit before tax so these numbers could now be significantly exceed.

Great finds first_things

I'm sure the original news of this sent the shares tanking from 10p levels all the way to 6p levels so this should reverse them. Somebody saw the news and took advantage but train still not left the station just yet.

Labour calls on Tory and DUP MPs to back a new ‘supported housing allowance’ at Opposition Day Motion debate today

Unfortunately those who are 'just about managing' includes those who think they are, but are actually perfectly OK but just want it all now, so there's a lot of them.

Politically much more valuable than those vulnerable people, who need supported and sheltered housing.

Come the revolution brother ! As long as its not in my back yard.

[topvest] 24/10/2017 17:52

That's how shambolic this Conservative government are - change of policy, u-turn, change policy etc etc. Cameron and Osbourne were no better.
That comes from someone who has always voted Conservative!
One word - simplification - that's the way forward. Complex regulation and bureaucracy rules and is not the way forward.

[cockerhoop] 24/10/2017 17:44

Good news though won't hold my breath First_things. It's inevitable that a solution has to be found and shame that a completely ill thought through policy has brought the sector to a standstill.

[first_things] 24/10/2017 17:06

House of commons debate tomorrow and government change in policy expected imminently..............



U-turn on housing benefit cap for mentally ill and elderly

"Plans to cap housing benefit for thousands of mentally ill, elderly and other vulnerable people in supported housing are to be re-examined after protests by MPs and charities."

"The rethink, expected within weeks, also follows evidence from the National Housing Federation, which found that 85% of schemes to build new supported and sheltered homes for vulnerable people have been shelved by housing associations because of fears that the new funding system will make them unsustainable."

[cockerhoop] 19/10/2017 13:25

Unsurprisingly an Opposition raised debate!

[first_things] 19/10/2017 13:06

House of Commons debate on supported housing
Wednesday 25th October

[yump] 08/10/2017 14:49

Well there was an announcement about more help to buy last week I think. A cynic (or realist?) might say that is because that builds more political capital for their voters than making supported housing easier and more affordable for those less fortunate voters would.
