Award joy for Fife-based housing association

KINGDOM Housing Association has spoken of its pride at being named Home Builder of the Year – Affordable Housing Provider, at the recent Homes for Scotland Awards.

Part of the Kingdom Group, Kingdom Housing Association is based in Fife and works across east central Scotland. The organisation has developed over 7,500 affordable homes.

Tricia Hill, development director at the Kingdom Group, said, “Being named Home Builder of the Year for our work delivering affordable housing is fantastic and I’m very proud of my colleagues across the Kingdom Group who work hard every day to deliver affordable homes that genuinely change lives.

“Working closely with our developer partners allows us to provide much-needed affordable homes that meet a range of housing needs and since the declaration of the housing emergency, delivering new homes has never been more important. Our ambition at Kingdom is to deliver as many new homes as possible and we are continuously looking for innovative ways to do that and, ultimately, grow the group as a force for good in the communities we serve.”

Kingdom Group chief executive Tom Barclay added, “At Kingdom we know the positive impact high-quality affordable housing has on people’s lives. Having a safe, secure home is a great foundation for a great life, but the work we do is about so much more than bricks and mortar. I’m proud that our wraparound services help our customers and communities thrive, supporting our mission to provide more than a home.”
