** Update 17 February **
Thank you to everyone who has completed our survey about the support you would want if you were going to swap your home. We've closed the survey to see what you have told us. We'll contact prize draw winners soon.
With lots of people registered on local housing waiting lists, sometimes the quickest way to move home is to swap (or exchange) your home with someone else. This might help you to move closer to family or to work, or to help you to move to a larger or a smaller home that will better meet your needs. We want to understand from customers what information and support you would expect Great Places to provide if you thought that swapping your home might work for you.
Answer our survey coming soon to tell us what would be important to you if you wanted to swap your home for your chance to win a £50 Love2shop e-gift card/voucher. You can see what information Great Places currently provides about finding a home or have a look at partner site House Exchange in our 'Links' section ('Sign up to swap your home').
**Prize Draw Terms & Conditions - All completed entries will be entered into a prize draw to win a £50 Love2shop e-gift cards/voucher. There is no cash alternative available. Please note that tenancy issues may be taken into account when the winners are chosen. The survey will close at 11.59 pm on Wednesday 13 February 2025. Any submissions completed after this time will not be entered into the draw. Winners will be chosen at random and contacted within 15 working days of the closing date.**
