TOMORROW’S HOUSING

SOCIAL AND INCLUSIVE HOUSING

A COMMITMENT AND SOLUTIONS

As the leading partner of social housing operators, Nexity builds social housing for rent, participates in all initiatives facilitating access to ownership for low-income households and offers a range of themed solutions (student accommodation, housing for career starters, inclusive residences, intergenerational solutions and residences for seniors). Through Nexity Non Profit, its approach also extends to people for whom access to housing is a factor in social inclusion or access to employment.

  • 1 in 15 new social housing units in France built by Nexity
  • 1,220 housing units in family shelters and emergency accommodation centres completed, in progress or planned
  • 29% of residential reservations from social housing operators in 2021 (1)

(1)  Slightly above the level of the SRU law (minimum of 25%) due to the delayed bulk sales planned in 2020 and postponed to 2021 in connection with the health crisis

INCLUSIVE LIVING SPACE

LA CHAUME : CENTRED ON PEOPLE

The La Chaume sheltered employment organisation (Esat – établissement et service d’aide par le travail) in Saint-Benoît in the Vienne department employs people with sensory impairments. The project, delivered by Nexity in 2021, is the first of its kind in France, combining an accommodation centre for adult workers and apartments for retirees previously employed by the organisation. The space was designed with them in mind, down to the small-est detail: handrails in shared spaces, contrasting colours to help distinguish doors and handles, and visual doorbells.

  • 19 studios to accommodate Esat workers
  • 11 rental apartments for Esat retirees
  • Shared spaces within the centre : dining room, multipurpose room, laundry and admin office
