| General Information / Background |
|
|
|
We are in business for neighbourhoods, creating places people want to live and provide a wide range of support and care services. Housing associations are independent social businesses that do not trade for profit, and reinvest surpluses into both their properties and communities. Building and renting homes is the most visible thing that we do.
Orwell has a portfolio nearing 3000 properties in Suffolk, Norfolk, Cambridge and Essex providing employment for over 312 people. As indicated above the Association also provides a wide range of care and support services for young people, women fleeing violence, those with learning difficulties and older persons.
Orwell Housing Association was formed in 1963 in Ipswich, employing no staff and managing a handful of properties. Today, Orwell manages approximately 3,000 properties of mixed tenure in Cambridgeshire, Norfolk, Suffolk and North Essex, with a further 220 properties currently in development, and employs approximately 300 permanent staff with a further 100 relief/casual workers and 50 volunteers.
The Association occupies a recently refurbished Victorian building on London Road, Ipswich as its Head Office and also has a branch office in Lowestoft to serve its tenants in the Waveney District. |
