Genesis is one of the largest, and a leading, UK housing association, We own or manage around 33,000 homes across London and the East of England - which means that at any one time there are approximately 100,000 people living in a Genesis home. As a social housing provider, we know there are big changes that housing associations have to make to the way they have operated traditionally; to make sure we are still around to be able to provide and improve on homes and services we offer to our residents and customers. We're working hard to embed a social hearted, commercial minded approach throughout our organisation - right from the type of structure and staff we have, down to the values that those staff and we as an organisation possess and use in the way we work for our residents and customers. More than that: we believe in building communities, not just houses. This is something we bear in mind right from the design concept of a new development, right through to the types of tenures and then the support that the residents, customers and local community need. Committed to our social purpose and roots, we have a charitable foundation, which invested around £1.8M in local community initiatives and projects last year, For more news, follow this page or visit us on our website at www.genesisha.org.uk
