Group structure

Newydd was first established in 1974. In 1998, a group structure was formed with The Cadarn Housing Group as the parent company and Newydd Housing Association (1974) Ltd as a subsidiary. Two more companies have since been added to the group, Living Quarters (Lettings and Sales) Wales Ltd and Newydd Maintenance Ltd. In 2020 the group rebranded as Newydd Group Ltd to recognise our track record and experience since 1974.
