At ForHousing our inclusive culture is built on trust. We believe that diversity enriches our culture, both in the workplace and in communities. We bring people together in an environment where they feel safe to openly share, knowledge, experiences, opinions and ideas to improve lives of social housing tenants.
We believe that everyone deserves to feel able to be their true self – without fear of discrimination or prejudice. Everyone should feel safe in their communities and in their work.

International Women's Day celebration
For International Women’s Day, Jenny Neville and Gemma Burton-Connolly, from our Executive Management Team, hosted an event for colleagues and Donna Cezair, from the Board. The day involved some great discussions of how we drive inclusion at ForHousing, as well as colleagues making pledges for how to forge women’s equality. The event was incredibly open, positive and shows that ForHousing is an organisation that wants to keep improving and keep moving with the times.
Meet the Race Inclusion Network event
Our Race Inclusion Network hosted a fabulous event for all colleagues to meet the Network members and get to know them. We were joined by members of both our Executive Management Team and the Board, thank you to Mark Fletcher for attending and Mike Parkin definitely had the best henna!
It was lovely to see everyone enjoying the food the Network and others brought, as well as the music and activities.
ForHousing is an organisation that focuses on driving improvements in inclusivity and creating a working environment where everyone can bring themselves to work – and this event really highlighted what an amazing range of cultures we have and how many people are excited to embrace differences here.
To help us achieve our vision and mission, we all live by our four values.
