Housing association named among UK’s best charities for second year

A North East housing association has been named one of the UK’s best charity and not-for-profit workplaces for the second year in a row.

Home Group was listed among 17 large UK businesses named as 2025 winners by Great Place to Work.

Having also been named a winner in 2024, the first year the category was awarded, Home Group is looking to build on its success across other Great Place to Work awards. It had been named 9th in the overall UK’s Best Workplaces in March.

Home Group was one of three North East-based winners in the charity and not-for-profit category, and one of two housing associations to win in the region.

Vicki Carruthers, Director of People at Home Group said: “We are incredibly proud to have been named one of the best charity and not-for-profit workplaces for a second year.</

“We take a lot of pride in our Great Place to Work results, because it comes directly from honest feedback our colleagues provide. To have been named a winner in the charity and not-for-profit category in each year the award has been given tells us that we are getting things right for colleagues, but we also cannot become complacent.

“We know that to deliver a great workplace we must continue to find new ways to innovate, and to be talking to and learning what our colleagues need.”
