Trusts Join Forces To Create New Housing Group

Parkway Green and Willow Park Housing Trusts have joined forces to create Wythenshawe Community Housing Group (WCHG).

This new parent group, which came into effect on the 1st April 2013, will be responsible for almost 14,000 homes across Wythenshawe, South Manchester, and provide employment to over 500 people.

Building on the strong legacy of each partner, it will bring strength through unity, deliver efficiencies and, most importantly, provide an improved service to tenants.


Chair of the WCHG Board, Eddy Newman, said: "Being Chair of Wythenshawe Community Housing Group is a great privilege. I look forward to working with WCHG's new Board and building on the existing skills and talents of our two Trusts. Together we will be working for the benefit of all our tenants in Wythenshawe."

The partnership will generate savings of up to £2 million per annum, and this saving will be re-invested for the benefit of tenants and the entire Wythenshawe community.
