Welcome to The Heart of Barnsbury Providing high quality affordable homes in partnership with tenants and the local community.
Out of hours answerphone number 020 7607 0837

The Association was formed in 1967 to increase the provision of low cost affordable housing in Barnsbury, Islington. Our first home was a Georgian terrace in Barnsbury Street, saved from demolition and developed into 30 homes for rent. Our biggest project was a new build scheme of 155 homes on Barnsbury Mews. It was completed on 1974 with most of the funding coming from the Greater London Council. In 1994 we purchased and developed a site for 16 new homes at Barnsbury Park. The scheme has been submitted for a number of awards.

We do not, at present, accept direct applications for housing. All our nominations come from the London Borough of Islington via a nominations agreement.
