Gentoo Group

We're a housing association that provides more than 60,000 people in Sunderland with a place they can call home. We're a values driven organisation, with a clear vision, a social purpose and a commitment to investing in people, place and property. We believe everyone has the right to live in a good quality home they can afford. We invest millions of pounds every year in keeping our existing homes safe, secure, and compliant. We're also playing our part in addressing the UK housing crisis locally, by building hundreds of new, modern and contemporary homes for rent in Sunderland - homes that meet the needs of local people. Not only do we provide vital housing, we support our tenants, residents and communities by investing in services that help people live their best possible life. This includes helping people into work, victims of domestic abuse and anti-social behaviour, young people to live independently, as well as a wellbeing service that supports our elderly tenants and residents. We're a Sunderland centric organisation and realise we can't do everything on our own. We value partnerships and work alongside key city partners, such as Sunderland AFC, Sunderland City Council, University of Sunderland and Sunderland College, to ensure a vibrant, dynamic and healthy Sunderland.
