It has been a productive and busy year for Circle Anglia and we are delighted to have been joined by Mercian Housing Association.

We are also pleased to announce that we will be welcoming a new Chair to our Board from January. Sir Robin Young succeeds Roger Humber as Chair. Robin is a former Permanent Secretary at both the Department for Trade and Industry and the Department for Culture, Media and Sport.
We look forward to welcoming him and his enormous amount of valuable experience. We would like to take this opportunity to thank Roger for all his encouragement and support over the last few years and wish him well in the future.
In this edition you will read about some of our work around retro-fitting of homes, about our recent shared ownership research and some more about our award winning work in communities.
For those of you who haven't already seen it, you may be interested in viewing our latest annual report.
I hope that you enjoy this edition. If you'd like to explore opportunities to work together please get in touch.
With best wishes for the festive season,
