Introducing Harrow Churches Housing Association
Equalities and Diversity
Harrow Churches Housing Association appreciates and recognises the different contributions
that diversity brings to the community. We are committed to providing services that
assist people to live without fear of racism, sexism, homophobia or other forms
of discrimination because of health, religion, lifestyle or disability.
About HCHA
Harrow Churches Housing Association (HCHA) was formed in 1967 when the Churches
of Harrow combined their efforts to respond to the housing needs of older people
in the borough.
Since then, the Association has continued on its chosen path of serving the needs
of people in Harrow and has grown steadily in doing so. This growth has accelerated
since the introduction of housing plus support provision for the borough’s young,
single homeless population.
Sheltered Housing provided by HCHA is specially designed housing for people aged
60 years and over, and is generally arranged in small, low-rise blocks of flats.
It offers older people the opportunity to live in a community of people from a similar
age group, where their independence can be maintained or improved.
Harrow, like all London boroughs, has within it a large number of vulnerable young
people who have no permanent place to live. We are here to make a difference to
the lives of these young people. HCHA has accommodation available for 31 young people
across nine properties whose support needs fall within the low to medium category.
These young people require some support in order to complete their transition to
independent living. The schemes, therefore, are designed with this in mind.
