New Charter Housing Trust Group exists to build and support communities in the provision of safe, comfortable, secure and affordable homes through partnership with customers and others. The Group is based in Ashton-under-Lyne, Greater Manchester, UK.
New Charter formed as the new landlords to own and manage homes transferred from Tameside Metropolitan Borough Council in Greater Manchester in March 2000. Then, it was Britain’s biggest Large Scale Voluntary Transfer. Now, with a turnover of £59million a year, a stock of 18,600 homes and a workforce of over 800, New Charter is one of the largest Registered Social Landlords based in the North West. It is regulated by the Tenant Services Authority which took over from the Housing Corporation as the government watchdog in December 2008.
We inherited homes needing over £220 million of repairs and maintenance, and a 10-year improvement programme started immediately. We will complete this - and much else - ahead of schedule. |
