ABOUT THE CHARTERED INSTITUTE OF HOUSING (CIH)

The Chartered Institute of Housing (CIH) is the professional body for people involved in housing and communities. We are a registered charity and not-for-profit organisation. We have a diverse and growing membership of over 22,000 people - both in the public and private sectors - living and working in over 20 countries on five continents across the world. We exist to maximise the contribution that housing professionals make to the wellbeing of communities.

CIH ANNUAL REPORT AND ACCOUNTS

CIH supported excellence in the housing sector with over £11 million investment in charitable activities in 2009, an increase of seven per cent on the previous year. During a challenging year for many of its members CIH continued to support housing professionals and their organisations to do life changing work by providing education, training, policy making networks, events and good practice information, as well as championing their work with all UK governments and policy makers.
