At Colne we very much celebrate our
long history. We are proud of all people
that have come through our doors to
not only create that history and shape
who we are today, but critically, the
people who remind us why we are here;
those that have had their lives changed
for the better in the 42 years of
Colne’s existence
Throughout 2015 we worked hard to ensure we could build
on the strong foundations created in the past to enable us to
face a new decade;
bigger, better and bolder
.
We are proud to launch a new vision, mission and a set of values
- we will stand up and be counted on how we do business more
than what business we do.
Achieving our growth target will depend on continuing to
grow our reputation and positive relationships now and in
the future. Despite the significant economic challenges we
are committed to providing a wide range of homes and
services that reflect the diverse needs of those living and
working in the East of England.
At Colne there’s a lot to be confident about. We face the
future with optimism, focus and a shared sense of purpose.
