Bron Afon Community Housing

Bron Afon Community Housing Limited is the landlord set up specifically to own, manage and improve the homes previously owned by Torfaen County Borough Council.

Bron Afon is a unique community based housing organisation because:

• It is owned by tenants and residents in Torfaen.
• It is a housing service that is shaped around the communities in Torfaen.
• It will support each community to set up a local community forum and develop their own action plans for changing their community.
• It will promote and support Torfaen’s communities. It will develop a strategy for delivering this aim and report to its members on how this is being implemented.
• Local communities can ask to take over management or ownership of their homes.

Bron Afon has been shaped and developed by tenants; it is owned by Bron Afon tenants and Torfaen residents who join us as Members. There are different ways in which you can get involved and influence how decisions are made by Bron Afon. Our Getting Involved page provides you with details of how you can play a role in shaping the future of Bron Afon.
