Great Homes, Great People, Vibrant Communities.

Formed in 1997, Shire Housing Association Ltd is a successful progressive housing association based in Cumnock, East Ayrshire. We currently own and manage 961 homes across East Ayrshire, provide estate maintenance services to around 900 owners and have an annual turnover of over £5million. Committed to delivering our Business Plan Vision of “Great Homes, Great People, Vibrant Communities”, over the last 3-4 years the business has been transformed, and in 2021 we launched our new  aspirational Business Strategy to build on this success.

A locally based charity, we are controlled by our Management Board- made up of members of the local community, and individuals who are committed to seeing the Association flourish. Board Members are sensitive to the needs and aspirations of the communities we serve, setting our Staff Team challenging strategic objectives.

Underpinning our Business Plan Vision are our Core Values of:

• Integrity – we are open and accountable in all we do;
• Diligence – we get things right;
• Inclusion – we value diversity;
• Caring – what matters to you matters to us;

Our staff team work hard to deliver quality and value to our tenants and stakeholders. The quality of service we provide has been recognised through Investors in People, and Customer Service Excellence Awards.

In the past 5 years we have invested over £5.5m in improving our homes. With the support of the Scottish Government and East Ayrshire Council we have also constructed over 200 new homes. We also manage and deliver on behalf of East Ayrshire Council the Care and Repair service across East Ayrshire.
