Our Vision
Our vision is that older people in Hornsey and Haringey can live in good homes which are genuinely affordable and promote independence, choice and inclusion.
Improving quality of life
We are a small housing association, set up in 1933 by Margaret Hill, and now managing 394 homes, mostly within the Hornsey and Crouch End areas of North London. Since that time, it has grown to become a specialist provider of a range of housing, support options for over 400 older people and people with other support needs.
We specialise in meeting the housing needs of older people – over 45 years - both in our sheltered schemes and in our converted street properties. We are focussed on improving the quality of life for our tenants and older neighbours
Our purpose
Our purpose is to help older people who need social housing in Hornsey and Haringey to live
securely and independently. We will achieve this by providing and investing in good quality homes,
responsive services and opportunities for tenants to be involved and connect with support when
they need it.
Hornsey Housing Trust
The Trust was established to support old age pensioners and we have retained our specialism of housing older people: the current minimum age at which someone can be allocated a Hornsey Housing Trust home is 45 and the average age of a Trust tenant is 78.
A third of our housing stock consists of sheltered housing, offering scheme-based accommodation with on-site support staff and additional services to our more vulnerable tenants.
Equality & Diversity
HHT is committed to the promotion of equality and the valuing of diversity. To this end, we will continuously monitor and review the implementation of this Equality and diversity policy 2022 whilst also ensuring that it is updated annually.
