Arbour is a contributor to the Social Housing Development Programme and started 94 new homes to meet housing need in the year to March 2025. What we’re looking for: We are aiming to recruit a new Board Member with good commercial nous, an affinity with our mission and, crucially, with the bandwidth needed to attend our board and committee meetings.
