The Matrix Partnership
Matrix is a partnership of five housing associations at its core providing development and other services
and support to a much wider range of housing associations. It has been in existence for more than three
years, has developed and evolved over that time from a development partnership to a much broader
based partnership with growing ambitions for the future. The core partners of Accord, Ashram,
Caldmore, Trident and Rooftop own, manage and have under development some 20,000 dwellings,
employ more than 1,000 staff, have assets approaching £1billion, a combined annual turnover of almost
£100 million and a development programme of over 1,400 homes to a value of over £140 million.
