North & East Housing Association (NEHA) is an Approved Housing Body established in 1993 by a group of volunteers. NEHA was formed to address the unmet housing needs in the northern and eastern regions of Ireland, which were not being adequately served by the private market and local authority housing schemes. 
Since 1993, NEHA has grown from a small voluntary organisation into an established Tier 3 housing body. We provide housing management and tenant support systems to our tenants currently across twelve local authorities with plans to expand our services with present and additional local authorities within its present Strategic Plan 2025 - 2028 and beyond.  


NEHA currently manages c.950 homes and is dedicated to looking after the neighborhoods where it has homes, ensuring that communities are well supported and maintained. 
NEHA has ambitious plans to expand its accommodation portfolio under its present Strategic Plan 2025 - 2028, and to meet Housing Delivery Actions Plan Targets with Local Authority partners under the Delivering Homes, Building Communities 2025 – 2030 Plan.
