About Salix Homes
An award-winning housing association, providing social and affordable homes and housing services across Salford
Salix Homes owns and manages over 8,500 homes in Salford, which comprises a real mix of properties including tower blocks, large housing estates and sheltered housing complexes.
We employ more than 300 people in a huge range of roles from repairs operatives, caretakers and estate management officers who are out and about in our communities, through to customer service advisors and teams who help the smooth running of the organisation.
We’re a not-for-profit charitable organisation, which means we can invest any profits straight back into our homes and communities.
The Salix Homes that we are today was established in 2015 when residents voted for us to take over the ownership and management of their homes from Salford City Council in a stock transfer, which we previously used to manage on behalf of the Council.
Through our Willo Homes affordable home ownership brand, and Hive Homes partnership, we’re delivering even more affordable housing options around Salford and Greater Manchester.
We’re not just about providing good quality, affordable homes
We're here to transform lives and support our customers and communities. Everything we do as an organisation is for the benefit of our communities, customers and their homes.
We work with specialist partner organisations to provide jobs, training opportunities and support for local people, to help with their personal development and wellbeing. We also fund a range of local projects and initiatives that benefit the wider community.
