June’s Viewpoint is live! Take a look at our latest news HERE

Eden Housing Association (EHA) marked National Volunteering Week (1–5 June 2026) by taking part in community litter-picking activities in Penrith and Kirkby Thore, combining its commitment to local communities with support for World Environment Day. Colleagues came together to help improve the areas where they live and work, demonstrating the organisation’s dedication to making a positive difference for residents. By the end of the week, the teams had collected an amazing 71 bags of litter, alongside a range of bulky waste items and recyclable materials. Stephen Colclough, Vice Chair of EHA, who also took part in the event, commented: “It was fantastic to spend time with colleagues and see first-hand the impact the team has made throughout the week. Working together in this way helps keep our communities looking their best and reflects the pride we all take in the places where we live and work.” EHA also thanked Westmorland and Furness Council’s team for providing the litter-picking equipment and collecting the full bags of rubbish.

Going forward all social landlords are required to capture and report back to the Regulator of Social Housing on a range of Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSM’s).

Here’s some useful information about the survey if you are contacted: The information collected from these surveys will tell us about the issues you’re most concerned about and inform our future strategic and operational planning.  We’d be extremely grateful for your co-operation if you’re contacted.

The voluntary Board of the Lyvennet Community Trust (LCT) has announced an agreement with Eden Housing Association (EHA) to secure the long‑term future of their homes at Stoneworks Garth in Crosby Ravensworth. LCT concluded that transferring ownership and management of the homes to a larger housing association would best support tenants and ensure that the scheme’s local occupancy requirements continue to be protected. David Graham, Chair of the LCT Directors and Trustees, said “Eden Housing Association was the natural choice. They supported LCT from the earliest stages of planning and development, and they have managed all day‑to‑day housing and tenant services since the homes were first let. Our tenants have always dealt with EHA staff, so the transfer has been a seamless transition that provides ongoing security of tenure.” The journey began when the Crosby Ravensworth Housing Steering Group was formed to explore how a Community Land Trust model could deliver affordable homes for the communities in Crosby Ravensworth Parish in the Lyvennet Valley. This work led to the creation of the Lyvennet Community Trust in January 2009 and the Stoneworks Garth development comprising 10 homes was officially opened on 27 October 2012 by Rory Stewart, then MP for Penrith…
