Women in Housing and Housing Heroes Awards 2022 winners revealed
For the second year in a row, the Housing Heroes and Women in Housing Awards have taken place together.
While combining the two sets of awards is a recent development, the driving force behind them remains the same: to recognise the sector’s trailblazers and leaders for the work they do supporting and improving the lives of residents and colleagues alike.

As was the case last year, the ‘employer of the year’ category combines both sets of awards – but this year, the category itself has been split into two.
Mears Group won independent employer of the year, largely for its focus on inclusion and diversity, while Calico Group takes the housing association/local authority employer of the year award back to its HQ.
