Northern Ireland

Voting in Northern Ireland was rather subdued this year, with just 610 residents, visitors, volunteers and staff in 10 locations participating. However very well deserved successes in the Retirement Housing category for the Abbeyfield & Wesley Society’s house in Downpatrick and Radius Housing’s Rathain Fold in Coleraine.

Apex Housing swept the board in the housing-with-care category, thanks to very strong voting by its residents, visitors and staff. It wins two Gold and one Silver Award for its schemes in Coleraine and Omagh.
