Introducing the social housing sector

Social housing exists to help people who can’t afford to rent or buy a home on the open market.

Housing associations provide homes and support for almost six million people across England. They offer social homes, shared ownership homes, some market homes to rent and buy and essential supported and specialist housing.

They also invest in community services and regeneration, provide support to vulnerable people and reinvest all their income into delivering their social purpose.

Just like the sector-leading NHF conferences that our delegates know and value, our virtual events offer live speakers, rooms for interactive debate and coffee breaks to catch-up with colleagues – but streamed live to their browser.

Our equality, diversity and inclusion in events statement sets out our commitment to representation, accessibility and inclusive spaces. You can also view our code of conduct for NHF events.
