About Weaver Vale Housing Trust
At Weaver Vale, we are proud to be more than a housing association, as a Community Benefit Society we are committed to creating lasting value for the people and places we serve.
For over two decades, we’ve worked hand-in-hand with our communities, growing to manage 6,800 homes across Cheshire and Warrington, alongside garages, shops, play areas, and green spaces. But our mission goes far beyond bricks and mortar, it’s about people, fairness, and opportunity.

Join a team that’s making a real difference in our communities. At Weaver Vale Housing Trust, we are proud to be more than a housing association, as a Community Benefit Society we are committed to creating lasting value for the people and places we serve.
What is it like to work at Weaver Vale?
We are an ambitious and innovative team, delivering high‑quality services across a wide range of housing and support areas, with strong performance reflected in our Tenant Satisfaction Measures – 88% Overall Satisfaction with services in 2025/26.
We are proud that we work together, listen, communicate, deliver great person centred services and work positively to try to resolve and learn from things that go wrong.
How do we make a difference?
Our teams help customers thrive every day. In 2025/26, our Money Matters Team secured over £4.69 million in income gains for customers through benefits advice and financial support, and with our lowest ever rent arrears, we show that strong financial performance goes hand‑in‑hand with supporting customers to sustain their tenancies and improve their financial wellbeing.
Behind every performance figure is the commitment, professionalism and care of colleagues across the Trust. Whether they work directly with customers, keep homes safe and compliant, or provide support services behind the scenes, each and every colleague helps to shape our future.
Our Corporate Plan
We are investing significantly in our existing homes and neighbourhoods, while also committing to build or acquire 800 new homes over the next five years through a range of tenures such as, Rent to Buy, Social Rent and Shared Ownership. Alongside this, we continue to support regeneration, which widens access to affordable housing for local people. Looking ahead, we know there is more to achieve. We will continue to listen to customer voices, enhance our services, and strengthen our communities, because together, we can achieve so much more.
