Hexagon Providing Affordable Housing For First Time Buyers

by Marie Cole on October 15, 2008

Hexagon Housing Association is a locally focused and community based organisation working to meet housing and care needs in South East London. In addition to managing 3,377 homes mainly across five London boroughs (Bexley, Croydon, Greenwich, Lewisham and Southwark), we provide over 500 supported housing bed spaces and manage three nursing homes.

The majority of the properties are for general needs tenants and are managed directly by Hexagon. Some of our properties are managed by the tenants themselves through housing co-operatives.

We employ over 200 staff, most of which provide care and support.

We are committed to:

Providing affordable homes (via rents and shared ownership opportunities);
Investing in our older stock to improve its condition (in 2007 we spent over £4m, increased from £2.3m in 2006);
Promoting a sustainable programme of growth;
Fairness and equality in providing jobs and homes;
Participation in our work of people affected by what we do – e.g. tenants, staff, local communities (e.g. one third of our Board are Tenants, regular focus groups are held with tenants to discuss key areas for improvement);
Performing our work better than before and continuously improving our services (e.g. improvements to the appointments system for reporting repairs, residents are now able to view their rent accounts on line, new computer system that allows queries to be dealt with more efficiently by our Customer Services team).
