Housing means more than simply putting roofs over heads, as employees of The Havebury Housing Partnership recognise. This housing association, which manages more than 6,000 houses and flats in Suffolk, made a big contribution to revamping a local playground last year. It now has smart swings, slides, a roundabout and a zipwire. Staff believe the association has a strong social conscience (an 81% positive score). Havebury also scored well for its support of staff development. People who work for it feel they have a positive future in the organisation (75%, ranked sixth among small not-for-profit outfits) and view the training they receive as extremely beneficial (78%). www.havebury.com
