| background information on this organisation |
IDS was established as the Four Per Cent Dwellings Company in 1885 by a group of Jewish philanthropists who hoped to relieve the overcrowding in homes in the East End of London. In 1952, it became the Industrial Dwellings Society (1885) Ltd. Today, IDS manages over 1,400 properties in Hackney, Redbridge, Barnet, Tower Hamlets and Southwark. The housing stock includes flats, houses, sheltered housing, accommodation for people with special needs, as well as a number of shared ownership properties. We currently employ fifty staff, including residentially-based teams. We have an on-going development portfolio, and enjoy enviable performance statistics in housing management and tenant satisfaction. We are preferred partners of the London Boroughs of Hackney and Redbridge for the provision of housing for the Jewish community.

They have design features which make them especially suitable for Jewish applicants and are in easy walking distance from the two Jewish primary schools and King Solomon High school in Barkingside.
