Salix Homes’ Finance Team was named joint winners of the Finance Team of the Year (small to medium-organisation category) in the prestigious Housing Association National Accountancy (HANA) Awards.
The award win comes just two years after Salix Homes became a stand-alone housing association, after tenants voted in favour of transferring more than 8,300 homes in Salford from Salford Council to Salix Homes.
Simon Morris, executive director of resources at Salix Homes, said:

“We were quite surprised to even be shortlisted, so to be named as a joint winner really is a fantastic result, of which we are very proud.
“We are very pleased that the judges recognised the journey and steep learning curve that our Finance Team has gone through in a little over two years since stock transfer and they obviously valued the achievements during that period, which included new areas such as treasury management, but also responding to unexpected issues such as the Boxing Day 2015 floods.
“Our Finance Team plays a crucial role in ensuring the smooth running of Salix Homes, and this award is testament to all their hard work.”
The awards, organised by the National Housing Federation, are now in their fifth year and celebrate those individuals and organisations that are making a difference in finance.
