What we do

For the last sixty years we have sought to help people in housing need to have somewhere they can call home and be proud of.

Our social purpose

We provide safe and affordable homes that make a real and
lasting difference by supporting wellbeing, opening opportunities
and helping our customers and communities thrive.

Our vision

By 2030, customers will experience safe, well-maintained homes, reliable services and a landlord they can trust.

We will be known as a disciplined and accountable organisation that gets the basics right, listens carefully and uses evidence to make the right decisions.

Every colleague, whatever their role, will recognise that the people who live in our homes are our customers. We all play a part in delivering for them.

This strategy builds on our previous strategy with a clear more with a clearer and more grounded position as a social purpose-led landlord. Everything we do will focus on delivering homes that build futures.

Our values

Our values guide our behaviour and expectations across the organisation:

  • Lead by Example
  • Own It
  • Be the Change
  • Better Together

These values have remained constant as our strategy has evolved. They reflect who we are and how we work.

They reinforce our commitment that the people who live in our homes are our customers. Every colleague, whatever their role, shares responsibility for delivering safe homes and reliable services.

How are we governed?

The majority of our Board members are independent non-executives. We are regulated by the Regulator of Social Housing and the government department currently responsible for overseeing the social housing sector is the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government.
