About Yorkshire Housing Group
Our Mission
Yorkshire Housing Group – we make a difference…
this means that we will use our housing role to be a force for sustainable, economic and social improvement, tackling poverty and inequality.
We are a family of housing organisations that have come together to form the Yorkshire Housing Group providing 16,300 homes for over 40,000 people. Affordable rented homes are our core business although we also have some low cost ownership schemes and provide support to homeowners who are elderly, disabled or vulnerable.
