Welcome!
We have changed the way that we operate following the experience of the last two years. This does not affect the way that we deliver services to you. However, if you wish to visit our office at Chapel House, please arrange an interview so that we can be sure that the person you wish to speak to is available. We will not normally be offering walk-in appointments with no prior arrangement.
But there are lots of other ways to communicate with us. Through this website, through social media, by telephone or email and text. Please be assured that we are here to help, support and respond in the best way we can.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We hope you will find our website a source of useful, interesting, and easy to access information. We are always keen to receive feedback so we can continue to improve its profile.
Vectis Housing Association manages just over 400 properties throughout the Isle of Wight. We are a responsive, resident-focused association providing high quality, general needs, homes and service to match.

- We are the Isle of Wight’s housing association
