Regulating
The Housing Corporation provides advice and support to housing associations, to help them provide the best and most cost-efficient services, and assesses their performance against agreed standards.
There are around 1,900 housing associations in England, currently managing over two million homes for more than five million people.
Some housing associations were founded centuries ago, but many trace their origins to the 1960s. Many new associations have been formed to manage and develop homes transferred to them by local authorities.
Each association is regulated based on where it has its head office. Our offices in Croydon, Exeter, Leicester, London and Manchester take the lead on this work.
