National Smaller Housing Association Network

Our National Smaller Housing Association Network is a space for you to hear the latest updates, as well as share best practice and insights on the key housing issues that matter most to your organisation.

This network is for NHF members that own and/or manage 2,000 or less homes and is chaired by Helena Evans, CEO at Westfield Housing Association. The vice-chair is Rebecca Clarke, Head of Operations at First Priority Housing Association. The network meets quarterly and all meetings are held virtually so we can ensure that as many members as possible throughout the country can attend.

At each meeting, we will hear from housing experts, get the latest government insights, and provide an opportunity for you to share your experiences with the NHF and inform our lobbying work.

If you would like to join the National Smaller Housing Association Network, receive email updates, and attend our next meeting, please contact our Admin team.
