Why we joined PlaceShapers

Soha’s aim is to be a leading community housing association.  We are a community-owned, mutual association, committed to ensuring that our residents are at the centre of all that we do. We have become a mutual so that our legal structure matches that ethos and enables residents to choose to exercise the power of shareholders as well as claim their rights as tenants and leaseholders.  Membership of the PlaceShapers Group is a great opportunity to share best practice about our collective ethos of engagement with and accountability to our local communities, and highlight our roles in building sustainable communities where residents have real voice and influence.
