About Mercian

Mercian Housing Association is an innovative ‘not-for-profit’ organisation providing affordable homes and contributing to the regeneration of communities across the West Midlands. Established in 1964 and now with a strong reputation for quality services and customer focus, the association provides over 3,400 rented and shared ownership homes.

Mercian is committed to innovation and offers a range of complimentary services to meet the needs and aspirations of our tenants, home owners and partners. This includes services which contribute to improving the quality of life for our customers, as well as a range of services focused on improving neighbourhoods.

Our vision, shared by all at Mercian, is to 'help develop communities people take pride in'.

Our mission is to provide homes for people, and related services,  in a way that:

  • Offers affordable quality housing which meets neighbourhood needs
  • Respects diversity and sustains the wider community
  • Puts tenants and home-owners at the heart of operations

In all we do we want to contribute to improving people’s quality of living by investing in communities where people want to live, work and enjoy. In doing so, we recognise that different people have different needs and we place particular attention to ensure that we are able to provide more choice for our customers.

But most importantly, we are passionate about being the best, whether that’s delivering excellent services, providing homes for rent, helping people to buy their first home or offering affordable loans to home owners for home improvement. At Mercian we all share the passion to be successful and enable people to live in quality homes and safe communities.
