GreenSquareAccord appoints new chair

GreenSquareAccord (GSA) has announced the appointment of Colin Dennis as its new chair.

The 25,000-home, west midlands-based housing association has recruited Dennis to take over from current chair Robin Bailey later this month

Dennis, who has a background in financial services, has previously chaired housing associations Citizen and North Devon Homes.

Dennis said: “With a chronic shortage of social homes, the cost-of-living crisis and an ageing population the challenges that GSA and our sector faces are great.

“But this brings home to us our social purpose and with determined colleagues we can contribute towards addressing the housing and social care need within the Midlands and South West.”

GSA in 2022/23 completed 430 affordable homes, including 106 for low cost home ownership.
