The Affordable Home Ownership Awards were established to promote the low cost home ownership housing sector, which provides a housing solution for those people who cannot afford to purchase a property on the open housing market without assistance.

The awards recognise excellence within the sector and champion housing organisations who build lasting and sustainable homes across the country, which in turn can transform local communities and leave a lasting legacy.

The awards are now in their fifth year and continue to grow in popularity each year with over 300 people having attended last year’s event alone. The awards are supported by the NHF, HCA, CLG and RIBA; they take place annually in London and will this year be hosted by comedian Jo Brand. 

The date for submissions is now closed. Thank you for all your entries. The Assessment Panel met at the end of June to agree the shortlist.

Jo brand is our celebrity host for the 2011 Housing Awards!

We are incredibly pleased to announce that Jo Brand will be hosting the 2011 Housing Awards.

Since leaving her job as a psychiatric nurse in 1987, Jo has built a large following across the UK, amongst male and female alike.

Jo has won many awards herself, including in January this year Jo was named as ‘Best female TV comic’ at the British Comedy Awards! Most recently, she was awarded 'best female comedy performance' at the recent BAFTAS

She has met with many successes across her comedy career with her own ‘Through the Cakehole’, and ‘All the Way to Worcester’. As well as appearances on ‘Question Time’, ‘Nevermind the Buzzcocks’, ‘Countdown’, and ‘They Think It's All Over’. She has also presented ‘Jo Brand's Commercial Breakdown’ and her series, ‘Jo Brand's Hot Potatoes’. Jo is now a regular host on 'Have I got News for You?'

Jo has written two irreverent books, ‘A Load of Old Balls’ and ‘A Load of Old Ball Crunchers’, about leading men and women of history plus a novel ’Sorting Out Billy’.

 

Building on the hugely successful 2010 awards, we have a new host and new categories. Those who attended last September loved the event and this is what you said: 

'The best one yet! The balloon popping was a great fun touch'

'We thought it was run very well and can't think of anything that would have made it better'.

'It was really great yesterday. I’m still smiling from some of the jokes!'
