The Joseph Rowntree Housing Trust was established in 1968 to take over responsibility for the housing operations of the Joseph Rowntree Memorial Trust (now known as the Joseph Rowntree Foundation - JRF). JRF was one of the three trusts created by Joseph Rowntree in 1904 and was originally established to administer Joseph Rowntree's model village, New Earswick. In 1959 the objectives of the original trust were widened to include research and development and this remains JRF's purpose today.
JRHT owns the freehold of the vast majority of the properties in New Earswick (including homes for rent and shared ownership, the shops, the communal facilities and the schools) and this still accounts for about 50% of the Trust's stock. The Trust acts as the landlord for the rented property and supports the community and educational activities in the village.
JRHT also carries out housing and care schemes in York and elsewhere in Yorkshire. These are of an innovative nature, demonstrating new forms of tenure, meeting special needs, creating strong self governing communities and exploring new features of design. The special link with JRF enables research to inform practice and practice to inform research. |
