Central Housing Forum
The Central Housing Forum is a consultative panel to the Housing Executive and is made up of representatives from each of the 13 areas, as well as representation from hard-to-reach groups, including young people, people with disabilities, and people from rural areas.
The Central Housing Forum represents the Housing Community Network, the key forum for tenant and community engagement in Northern Ireland.
This forum has a recognised and meaningful role in the Housing Executive's monitoring and decision-making processes and influences decisions affecting tenants and communities. The panel scrutinises policies and procedures and, moreover, acts as a quality assurance body for the Housing Executive Board, with whom it meets regularly.


When Mullaghmore & Castleview Community Association (MACCA) in Omagh set out to plan this year's summer scheme, they took a chance on something different. Alongside the usual trips to the cinema and play areas, children aged 5 to 14 spent a full week immersed in a STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics) Future Farmers programme exploring the natural world on their own doorstep. The risk paid off in a big way!
