About us

What we do

Established in Harpenden in 1968, Aldwyck has a long track record of delivering affordable homes to rent or buy and providing supported housing and care services to our customers in communities across the south east and east of England.

• We provide homes and management services for over 20,000 people in a variety of tenures, from rented and part-owned homes to owner-occupiers.
• We offer specialist support and accommodation for young people, those with disabilities and older people. Our supported housing and care services range from 24-hour a day care, to on-call support as and when needed.
• We also supply a wide variety of services to other organisations in the housing sector, from Development, Maintenance and Housing Management through to Finance and Internal Audit, Human Resources and Customer Services.
• We are a not-for-profit social housing provider with an annual turnover in excess of £34 million.

Where we work

We have two subsidiary housing associations managing our services to customers. Aldwyck East covers Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire and North London, Aldwyck West covers Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Northamptonshire.

What we are working towards

Our vision for the future is one in which people can and will exercise greater choice over where they live and the services they can access, and that they will want to live in attractive, sustainable neighbourhoods.
