About Erimus

Erimus Housing is a not-for-profit housing association which is a key player in the regeneration of the area.

We own approximately 10,500 homes across Middlesbrough and provide quality homes and first class services to residents.

Erimus Housing is not just about providing quality homes.  Our vision is 'Providing homes and strengthening communities in the Tees Valley'.

Erimus Housing is governed by a board, which is made up of 15 people; five tenants/leaseholders, five independent members and five council representatives. The Board plays a vital role in making the decisions on the running of Erimus Housing and ensuring that the commitments, services and performance expected by tenants are delivered.

Erimus Housing tenants are our priority and they have played, and continue to play, a major part in making decisions that affect them. There are a number of ways in which they can be involved in this process.

Area housing forums are held regularly where residents discuss and make decisions on matters that will affect the area they live in, and the Residents' Panel, which is made up of residents who represent each area and make decisions on issues which affect Erimus Housing residents as a whole.  There are also a number of focus groups which residents become involved in to consider specific areas of work.

A massive improvement programme is well underway which will see more than £100m being invested in Erimus Housing homes across Middlesbrough. The programme is being carried out by Erimus Housing with our own in-house team, Erimus Building Services.

Work has also started on projects to improve the environment for tenants including external painting work, fencing and the development of parking spaces.

A Residents' Resource Centre, which the residents help run, has been established at Cinderwood, Thorntree, and now houses a variety of facilities for tenants to use.

Homechoice on Corporation Road in Middlesbrough, has been developed as a one-stop shop, providing a variety of services including choice based lettings and homeless and housing advice.
