Rooftop Housing Group provide 6,500 units of social and affordable rented housing, predominantly family and sheltered or extra care housing and support services to both elderly and younger people.

The organisation’s mission is to improve the quality of life of people and the communities in which they live. This mission will be achieved by providing excellent housing and related services, improving existing homes and working with a range of partners to benefit their communities.

Last year, Rooftop reviewed their values in collaboration with staff and board members. The new values are: We work together, we make things better, we do the right thing.

Group Chief Executive Boris Worrall values open communication, and exploits social media to keep members of the Rooftop team up to date on recent developments.
