Alpha Co-operative

Alpha was founded in 1981. It holds 33 homes in Handsworth, to the west of the recently revamped Victoria Park. The bulk of its properties are located in Antrobus and Brunswick Roads

The co-operative’s membership consists of people dedicated to providing the best possible housing conditions for all its present and future members.

Alpha provides affordable and high-quality housing and aims to take a more active part within the local community by improving quality of life for its members. Its properties have state of the art heating systems, double glazing, insulation and modern kitchens and bathrooms as standard.

Members have attended many training sessions since Alpha’s inception, allowing them to develop skills to contribute to the co-operative’s success. The maintenance, financial, and housing management services are all controlled by its members via a strong and well-informed Committee, which meets on a monthly basis and is open to all members. Some services are also commissioned from bchs, who were appointed as agents several years ago.
