Who are Newport City Homes?

As a housing provider NCH's ambition is to provide an excellent customer experience, we want to grow and develop our homes and communities and to be agile and innovative in our approach to solving problems and making decisions.

We have three strategic commitments that cut across all our activities and decisions and collectively they enable us to achieve our NCH Strategy 2025, by ensuring we make joined up decisions and choices that make the best use of our resources, have the greatest combined impact, and make a positive difference.

Newport City Homes (NCH) has a significant presence in Southeast Wales. We have a responsibility to make sure our customers, communities and colleagues are given opportunities to grow and succeed as we respond to the significant challenges ahead.

Here at NCH, our true responsibility is to ensure that we create an environment that is equal and fair for all, but this does not mean simply treating everyone the same. Equality and diversity are about promoting and accepting the things that distinguish us from each other. Being inclusive means that we ensure that we are receptive and adaptive to the needs of everyone.

As an employer we want everyone to feel supported, valued and treated with respect and kindness, this touches on every aspect of who we are as an association and is one of the cornerstones of how we work. That is why inclusion is one of our values and why we are building our systems, processes and actions around positively promoting a sense of belonging.

We're at an exciting part of our journey, where we are exploring a merger with Melin Homes. This is a great time to join us as we develop these opportunities for our customers, communities, and colleagues.
