Swan Housing Association: What House? Housing Association of the Year

Swan Housing Association operates in Essex and East London and has grown to owning and managing over 11,000 homes. Our mission is to deliver exemplary homes and communities and our social purpose – delivering homes and services to our residents – underpins everything that we do.

 

As a regenerating Landlord, we take an innovative approach. We were one of the first HA’s to build for private sale and were probably one of the first HA’s to have our own in- house developer and contractor, NU living. NU has already built over 800 homes, contributing over £60m back to Swan to help deliver our social purpose. We recently delivered the first modules, constructed in our own factory in Basildon, to site. Our factory, which is creating up to 60 local jobs, will build up to 400 homes a year, using precision engineering under our NU build brand and will help us deliver our development pipeline of over 3,500 homes.

Our corporate strategy challenges us to deliver a further 10,000 homes by 2027. We will do this by working with our partners, as we recognise that together, we really can deliver more. In addition to the regeneration of Laindon Shopping Centre, we recently announced we would be working with partners to deliver the £1 billion regeneration of Purfleet too.

Swan is ranked at no 34 in the Sunday Times Top 100 Not for Profit Companies to work for list, we hold IIP Gold, SHIFT Gold (just one of 6 HA’s to retain this) and Housing Diversity Network Accreditation.

We are delighted to be What House? Housing Association of the Year!
