About us
Newlon Housing Trust is a charitable housing association founded in Hackney in 1968 to provide decent and affordable homes for local people.
Today we provide nearly 7,000 homes across north and east London and we remain as committed as we were in 1968 to supporting the needs of one of the UK’s most diverse communities.
We provide a range of housing options from General Needs renting to Shared Ownership, as well as innovative Intermediate Rent schemes for Key Workers. Through our partner organisation Outward we also provide supported housing services for the elderly and people with learning disabilities and a wide range of support needs.
Our sister organisation Newlon Fusion works on a wide range of Community Regeneration projects, working with local people and a range of partners to support and build sustainable communities.
Find out more about the services provided by the Newlon Group by visiting the Newlon Group page in the About Newlon section.
We are growing fast with a further 1,600 homes currently in development and are proud to be the lead developer of social housing for the ‘Arsenal on the move’ regeneration project. 1,400 new affordable homes are being built in the area surrounding Emirates Stadium following Arsenal FC's move from their historic Highbury home. Many community initiatives are also being developed as part of one of Europe’s biggest regeneration schemes.
Inspection update
Following our recent Short Notice Inspection by the Audit Commission we are very pleased that overall they found more strengths than weaknesses in the services they inspected and judged us to have promising prospects for improvement. The inspectors also made some recommendations for where we can improve our services and we consulted with our residents to develop an action plan.
