Uniting grows at Westmead and Hawkesbury

Partnering with New South Wales Government, Uniting’s affordable housing program is much more than just bricks and mortar and is designed to promote a sense of safety, security, community and opportunity.

With 340 homes already delivered, Uniting’s affordable housing program continues to grow, having added 60 homes to its affordable housing options. Uniting continues to try and meet the high demand for accommodation services for women over the age of 55, the fastest-growing cohort of homelessness in New South Wales.

Providing a range of housing types including dwellings in existing retirement villages, new developments and in stand-alone affordable housing projects, Uniting has recently delivered two new options in Westmead and Hawkesbury.
