About us 

A New Approach to Housing

At The Bee Hives CIC, we believe the people who care for our community deserve a place to call home.
We’re a Manchester, Salford, Trafford based social enterprise creating sustainable, affordable housing for local working people who are priced out of both council housing and the private rental market.

Why We Exist

From carers and key workers to hospitality staff and tradespeople too many of our city’s essential workers face long commutes, unstable rentals, and rising costs.
As a former care leaver with lived experience of housing insecurity, our co-founder knows first hand that the system often overlooks those who give so much back to their community.

We’re here to change that  one eco-friendly home at a time.

Our First Project

We’re piloting three off grid chalet homes:

  • Powered by green energy

  • Built with sustainable materials

  • Designed to keep rents fair and stable

  • Located close to work opportunities

This small-scale project will prove what’s possible and pave the way for more community led housing across the region.
