Housing


We have been made aware of a scam elsewhere in the country whereby residents of Housing Associations are being contacted by fraudsters pretending to their Local Council’s repairs and maintenance team. 

Please be vigilent and hang up if you receive a call you are not expecting. If you have any queries or concerns, please contact our repairs and maintenance team directly on 0330 678 0008 option 1 or by emailing repairsandmaintenance@papworthtrust.org.uk

Supporting people to have their own home across the East of England.


Papworth Trust rents homes to people, some of whom are disabled. Many of our homes are fully wheelchair accessible, but we also have standard specification properties for people who do not need any adaptations.

We are a Registered Provider of Homes, which means we are classed as a ‘Social Landlord’ and our homes are rented at either a social or affordable rent to people who need a home.

As a Registered Housing Provider, we have a key role in supporting Local Authorities with their duties to meet identified local housing needs. This means that Papworth Trust do not operate its own waiting lists for housing and properties are let to applicants through the Local Authority Housing Register and Home-Link bidding system.

You can apply for a Papworth Trust home in two ways depending on the type of accommodation you need:

•    For all other accommodation you must register with the Local Authority Housing Department in the area in which you wish to live. For further information on how social housing is allocated in your area please contact your Local Authority Housing Team.

The Trust’s home rental service is regulated by Homes England and Regulator of Social Housing.
