Our clients story

In 2003 the council homes in North Hertfordshire were transferred to a new housing association with the aim of improving tenants' homes and creating the capability to build more affordable housing.

The change reflects how our client have evolved as an organisation with a clear identity and a passion for delivering more high-quality affordable homes. As the name suggests they want customers to be able to settle - to find somewhere they can establish themselves, create a life, a community and prosper.

Getting the basics right, creating a great customer experience and delivering new homes to meet local needs are what makes them a great housing association. This doesn't happen by chance - they focus on neighbourhoods, helping with employment and support and by tackling loneliness.

The commitment, passion and care that their colleagues demonstrate every day is what makes us special. They are proud to work in social housing, they care deeply about the lives of their tenants and how they can help, and they are committed to making themselves the housing association in Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire.
