Vision, mission and values

High-quality homes, supporting independence and creating opportunities

Who we are

Formed in 1994, our mission has been to have a positive impact on people and communities by providing high-quality homes, supporting independence and creating opportunities.

We currently own and manage over 12,000 properties across the UK including homes for affordable rent, independent living and Extra Care, supported living, women’s refuges, supported housing and shared ownership.

Our supported living business stream, RWP, is one of the largest providers of high-quality supported living for people with a learning disability, autistic people and those with a mental health condition in the UK. It has landlord responsibilities for nearly 4,000 supported living tenancies.

 

Progress Living is the Group’s keyworker accommodation. It has over 500 apartments and homes, located at each main hospital site of United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust.

We also provide a national award-winning technology-enabled care service, Progress Lifeline, which enables over 65,000 people to live safely and independently in their own homes.

Key Unlocking Futures, the Group’s charity, supports over 10,000 individuals and families each year, including providing support at our homelessness schemes and refuges for women and children who need to escape domestic abuse.

We are a well-run, financially resilient organisation with over 800 colleagues committed to our social purpose. The Regulator of Social Housing has awarded us a G1/V1, the highest financial viability and governance grading.

Strategic objectives

We have three key objectives: homes, independence and opportunities.

We believe all three are essential to achieve a healthy life. Good quality homes are the foundation for this, but good health requires quality-of-life considerations, too.

Our approach prioritises the individual and the environment in which to provide these building blocks for health and wellbeing. We do not achieve these things independently; we work in partnership with others, our tenants, and customers to deliver a person-centred approach.

Through our approach and range of service provision, we seek to enable tenancy sustainability and transform lives.
