Connect Housing started in 2006, when The Ridings and West Yorkshire Housing Associations came together. The result? A single association, passionate about housing and neighbourhoods. We are a Registered Social Landlord operating on a not-for-profit basis under charitable rules.
We manage:
- almost 1,800 general needs homes
- over 700 properties for older people
- housing with support for almost 300 people
- over 100 shared ownership homes
... plus student housing and a wide range of support and regeneration services across the whole of Leeds and Kirklees districts and in Calderdale and Wakefield.
Thank you to everyone who, throughout many years, helped support The Ridings and West Yorkshire.
On this website you will find lots of information about our organisation. It includes sections to help you to find out about renting a property, how to report repairs or make a complaint.
The site will be frequently updated and you may see a few changes as we respond to feedback and comments. Please let us know what you would like to see if it isn’t here.
More Awards for Connect Housing
Connect Housing's recent development scheme won the Best National Home Improvement Council Award. The scheme, in Chapeltown, has seen the "de-conversion" of four properties from flats back into family homes. The new homes incorporate energy saving measures such as efficient boilers, insulation to walls, floors and roofspaces, and solar hot water heating. The project was put together as a pilot scheme and has been so successful that Connect Housing and two other housing association partners have won additional funding from the Housing Corporation to do the same to a further 31 properties in the area.

Design Excellence
One of Connect Housing's addresses in Harehills Avenue has been transformed from five run down bedsits to three 2-bed flats, each with their own entrance. The two ground floor flats are particularly light, airy and spacious whilst the top floor flat is smaller, but just as well-designed. These flats also have a secure area where bikes can be stored on the ground floor. Each has had sound insulation as well as energy-efficient features installed and will no doubt appeal to many of our tenants and people on our waiting list. The Housing Corporation has given generous grant aid which keeps the rents down and the tenants of these flats will also have the right to acquire.
