Coastline
Housing has been rated as one of the best landlords in the country.
The housing
charity, based in Redruth, is rated at number 25 in the top 50 recently published
by magazine 24 Housing.
It compared
hundreds of housing associations across the country, looking at the many extra
services and benefits to local communities provided in addition to housing.
This latest
recognition of Coastline’s achievements comes just weeks after Inside Housing
magazine placed the association at number 40 in its Top 50 Builders in the
country, making it the second fastest growing housing association in the
country.
Coastline
Housing’s Chief Executive, Allister Young, says: “Everyone at Coastline works
incredibly hard to ensure we are a strong foundation for the communities we
support. 24 Housing particularly noted our ‘inspiring futures’ programme that
has helped to get over 400 customers back into work or education and training. We
are now expanding that scheme into Coastline Construct, which will provide
on-site training and skills at our new development of 75 homes in Helston.
That’s one of the best examples of what we do – bringing financial investment
into Cornwall and using that to also invest in communities and opportunities
for local people.”
Coastline
continues to grow and will build a further 500 homes over the next four years
with funding of more than £35 million, and develop a new purpose built homeless
centre in Pool.
