Habinteg Direct, our customer contact centre, will be closed on 14 and 22 May due to essential staff training.

Habinteg have been long term campaigners for accessible housing standards and this report clearly shows the need for a step change in supply to meet the current and future needs of the population.

Following on from last week’s success at the UK Housing awards, where Habinteg was awarded Outstanding Approach to Communication, on Thursday 10 May the housing association took home awards for Communications and for Best New Build Accessible Scheme at the inaugural 24Housing diversity awards.

Launched in 2016, the #ForAccessibleHomes campaign aims to amplify personal stories which highlight the positive difference that accessible housing can make to disabled people by enabling independent living and full participation in the community.

Habinteg tenants and staff came together with local people to celebrate the scheme’s 30^th anniversary on Friday 27 April. The Hainault scheme was opened on the same date in 1988 by The Rt Hon. Lord William Waldegrave of North Hill, who was Minister of Housing and Planning at the time.
