Making a Difference Beyond Recruitment

When we established Recruit with Purpose, we wanted its impact on Social Housing to be far greater than just recruitment services.

Our Share with Purpose series aims to share innovation across the social housing sector and has reached over 15,000 people so far. You can read from our contributors here.

We also wanted to help prevent homelessness as we have partnered with 1625 Independent People Charity. 1625 Independent People seek to prevent homelessness, keep young people safe and support them to build on their strengths to be the best they can be.
