Our finances

Every year we publish a review of our finances, so you can see how we are performing, our financial drivers and objectives, and whether these are being met.

We are a not-for-profit organisation with a social purpose – each year we use our income to influence, campaign, and engage on behalf of the social housing sector.

You can read more about our services, and their impact. We aim, by operating efficiently, to make a small underlying surplus.

The highlights of our 2025/26 finance review include:

• Affiliation fees totalled £9.1 million and continued to account for more than two-thirds of income.
• Turnover increased to £14.102 million, representing a 1.91% increase on the previous year.
• Membership prices for 2025/26, which are set the previous September, increasesd by 2%.
• All floors at Lion Court remained 100% occupied until March 2026, when one tenant vacated.
