Additional services
We’re Hampshire’s largest provider of affordable homes
formed in April 2017 from the merger of housing associations First Wessex and Sentinel
We have around 70,000 customers and own and manage 30,000 homes in the South East, mainly across Hampshire and Surrey. And have around 1,000 staff including 300 in our repairs team and our own construction arm, VIVID Build.

We have plans to build at least 1,200 new homes a year across all tenures, making us major builder of new homes amongst UK housing associations. Our homes are located across 20 local authorities.
