Chrisitan Action Housing Association

Who we are

Our Association was founded in 1966 by a group of local church groups in response to the desperate need in the local area for affordable rental housing. Christian Action has grown into a vital local provider of accommodation in four North London boroughs. We are a diverse, fun and friendly team whose mission is to provide high quality and affordable support and services to those in housing need.

 What we do

We are proud to be a local landlord and business, connected to our local community. Across Enfield, Barnet, Haringey and Waltham Forest we provide affordable housing, managing around 1600 homes and we continue to strive to provide more much needed services. We run essential supported living accommodation and services for young people, helping them to achieve independent living and a bright future. We have a number of retirement schemes for older residents, offering peace of mind and an opportunity to remain independent and in their local community.

Working for us

What makes Christian Action special is our employees. Situated in the heart of Enfield, we have a team of 100 dedicated and knowledgeable professionals who help to deliver excellent and innovative housing and support services. Through our shared values, Care, Connect, Commit and Champion, our team brings something extra to this housing association that means we truly offer a local service that makes a difference. In return we offer our employees a chance to develop, to make a difference in their local community and to be part of a supportive team.
