ForHousing was formed in 2008 following the transfer of over 14,500 homes from Salford City Council. Today, ForHousing owns more than 19,000 homes across the North West.
Everything the organisation does is driven by a commitment to positively impact the lives of social housing tenants and deliver on what matters most to them and their communities.
By listening to tenants and keeping their needs at the heart of all activity, ForHousing provide safe, well maintained homes and deliver customer focused, equitable and efficient services, while always striving to do better.
The organisation's values were developed in consultation with colleagues. Its HEART values shapes its approach to excellent customer care and links to its values to guide everyday behaviours.
ForHousing is proud to champion an inclusive and supportive workplace through a range of colleague led networks. These include the Staff Forum, which provides a strong employee voice, as well as dedicated networks for Race Inclusion, LGBTQ+ colleagues and allies, and its disability network.
These networks play a vital role in fostering belonging, amplifying diverse perspectives, and helping shape a culture where everyone feels valued and empowered to thrive.
ForHousing also works closely with its Colleague/Tenant Working Group, which offers insight and lived experience about ForHousing services and challenges tenants may face.
A culture of continuous learning gives colleagues opportunities to grow, build new skills and embrace new experiences.
