The Wrekin Housing Group & Housing Plus Group merge

In January 2025, The Wrekin Housing Group and Housing Plus Group finalised our merger. The Wrekin Housing Group is now part of Housing Plus Group.

The new Housing Plus Group will respond to the clear priorities expressed by customers, employees and key stakeholders in the recent consultation. It plans to invest an additional £55 million in existing homes and will be a key developer of new homes over the next 5 years. This will help cement the new organisation’s leading role in providing affordable homes and care across our communities.

The new Housing Plus Group will:

Continue to work with and listen to customers, and in doing so be able to provide even better services for them
Be more resilient. Increasing investment in existing homes, while also growing our capacity to build more social homes
Remain connected to the communities we already serve while having a larger voice in the region, with 1,800 employees, 34,000 homes and a turnover of more than £250million, we will create additional regional economic impact
Provide more opportunities for our employees and be a great place to work

These changes will not affect any customer’s right to live in their home. There will be no changes to existing tenancy or lease agreements as a result of the merger. Customers will continue to access the services they need by contacting their landlord the same way and dealing with the same teams they do now.

While our merger is completed, there is still a lot of work to do to bring our services together, so, for now, we will continue to use ‘The Wrekin Housing Group’ as our trading name. We will continue to keep you updated.

If you have any questions about the merger please contact The Wrekin Housing Group by calling 01952 217100, or emailing getinvolved@wrekin.com.
