Hunter-based Compass Housing picked up three of the eight awards at the Australasian Housing Institute’s NSW Awards held in Sydney on 6 July.

 

The social and affordable community housing provider won the Professional Excellence in Social Housing Award for the most outstanding organisation, community housing provider or Government agency involved in housing for NSW as well as the Leading Asset Management Award.

 

Compass’ group managing director, Greg Budworth, took out the Outstanding Achievement Award for an individual.

Compass was also commended for its community development work and tenant initiatives including its community hubs.

 

Mr Budworth said for Compass to receive the top award for excellence was a tribute to his team’s care, diligence and hard work. 

Compass and Mr Budworth are now finalists, along-side other state and New Zealand winners, at the national awards to be held in Sydney on November 29.
