Established in 2002 to deliver our core social purpose of meeting housing need by providing homes for rent and sale. Our mission: Transforming lives by creating great homes for everyone We work across the county helping to make communities thrive. Everyone deserves to live in a high quality, affordable home, and we aim to help tackle the housing crisis and provide excellent services for our customers. The people who work at CHP have very different responsibilities, but all work together to help our customers, whether it’s fixing a repair, managing a tenancy or building new homes. We operate a supportive, inclusive, culture where our approach to our work is governed by our values: Bold We are focused on the issues that matter most to the community we serve and we take a bold approach to solving hard-to-fix issues.

We encourage diversity, curiosity and inclusive communication. Determined We are aware of the impact we have on our environment, our customers and wider community and we are determined to do the right thing – balancing the sustainability of the organisation with the needs of the community and broader society. Our commitment to our people has been recognised for a number of prestigious awards.
