Our Governance
Ealing Council set up Broadway Living in 2014 to address the lack of high-quality, publicly funded, affordable housing, and is the sole shareholder. There are rigorous structures in place which mean that Broadway Living is accountable to the public and the council.
Broadway Living’s relationship with Ealing Council is expressed in its Articles of Association and Shareholder Agreement. These articles set out the objectives of the company, its activities and the matters that are reserved to the council as shareholder.
The council and Broadway Living have also agreed a Scheme of Delegations setting out what is retained for approval by the council as shareholder, and what sits within the accountability of the BL and BLRP boards.
As a provider of social housing, BLRP is regulated by the Regulator of Social Housing and is required to demonstrate good governance in accordance with the principles set out in the regulator’s Governance and Financial Viability Standard.
How Broadway Living is governed
Broadway Living Limited and Broadway Living RP Limited are overseen by a Board of Directors. Since May 2026, the two companies have moved to a shared board arrangement, where the same directors sit on both boards.
This helps the companies make consistent decisions while the future arrangements for Broadway Living homes and services are reviewed with the London Borough of Ealing.
The companies remain legally separate, and the Board must consider the responsibilities of each company when making decisions. Broadway Living RP Limited also continues to meet its responsibilities as a registered provider of social housing.
The Board’s main role during this period is to protect residents’ interests, maintain services, oversee safety and housing management, and make sure decisions are taken carefully and responsibly.
