Our purpose

We’re here to provide safe, affordable homes and support for people across Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and South Oxfordshire — especially those facing disadvantage. Our work goes beyond housing. We help people thrive.

More than a landlord

We are more than just a landlord.  We believe that understanding the real challenges residents face is the only way to make positive change, listening to the community helps us set the right direction for our services, our residents and all our stakeholders.

Safe, Quality Homes 

We own and manage over 6,400 homes across seven local authorities. We focus on safety, quality, and sustainability — because a home should be more than a roof over your head. It should be a place to feel proud of and safe in.

Professional property services

Our in-house team of skilled tradespeople delivers a full maintenance service, ensuring homes are well cared for and issues are resolved quickly.

 Resident-centred – online and personal

We’re investing in digital platforms to make it easier for residents to manage their homes, access services, and stay informed—anytime, anywhere. From repairs to rent, our online tools are designed to be simple and convenient.

But we know that great service isn’t just about technology. It’s about people. That’s why we continue to offer personal support, face-to-face contact, and community engagement. Whether online or in person, we’re here to listen, respond, and build relationships that help our residents feel truly at home.

Reinvesting in Communities

As a not-for-profit organisation, we reinvest every surplus into improving homes, building new ones, and enhancing services. We work closely with local partners to protect vulnerable residents and strengthen neighbourhoods.

Shaped by Residents

Our residents are central to how we design and deliver services. Across the organisation, we actively gather feedback through surveys, conversations, forums, and day-to-day interactions. This insight helps us understand what matters most and ensures our services reflect real needs. Our Resident Engagement Team supports this work, helping to build strong connections and keep resident voices front and centre in everything we do.

More Than Housing—Helping People Thrive

We believe that housing is about more than bricks and mortar. It’s about creating the conditions for people to thrive—at home, at work, and in their communities. Our five-year corporate strategy sets out how we’ll do this, guided by three core themes:

Safe ~ Keeping residents and our people safe at home and at work

We put safety first—at home, at work, and in the community. From high-quality homes to safeguarding and compliance, we take a proactive approach to keeping residents and colleagues safe every day.

Satisfied ~ Providing value for money services for residents; fulfilling careers for our people

We’re focused on delivering services that residents value and colleagues feel proud to provide. That means clear communication, responsive support, and a commitment to continuous improvement. Our “Spirit of Housing Solutions” sets expectations for how we work together—with respect, purpose, and care.

Sustainable ~ Delivering more effective services and more efficient homes

Our social purpose and values remain focused on providing affordable housing for local people who are unable to buy or rent on the open market. This will always be our priority.
