Why do Kensington and Chelsea run a Mutual exchange scheme?
There are many people who wish to move either into or within Kensington and Chelsea and therefore the waiting list to be rehoused is very long. The Housing Options Department has been looking at different ways of helping people to move and the mutual exchange scheme has been set up to try and make the best use of housing in the borough. There are lots of people willing to swap homes in the Kensington and Chelsea area. Some want to move to bigger homes whilst others want to move to smaller properties, this scheme will therefore try and match people with properties.
