General news
To celebrate becoming a member of Women in Retirement Living,we're shining a light on some of the incredible women working at Housing 21. Please meet Sam, Local Housing Manager:
Sam started her career in Retirement Living with Housing 21 in 2007 as a Court Manager at St Oswalds Court in Pontefract. She stayed there for fifteen years before moving on to become the Local Housing Manager at Askern Vale – one of our newly built Retirement Living Schemes in Doncaster. She said: “I fell into housing and soon became one of the youngest housing managers at the time.”
In 2024, Sam was nominated as a Housing Champion by her colleagues and made her way to Housing Today’s 2024 Top 30 Housing Champion list. When asked what the best thing about working in Retirement Living is, she said she loves being able to make a difference: “Making a difference to people’s lives by providing safe homes is a very fulfilling career. No two days are the same working as a Local Housing Manager and that’s what I love.”
