Ireland’s social housing sector has changed dramatically in the last decade – not just in scale, but in how it’s regulated and held to account. For Approved Housing Bodies (AHBs) and housing charities, the era of voluntary codes is over. Regulation is now statutory, risk-based and much more visible.
We provide expert consultancy and coaching support to charities, housing associations, and not-for-profit organisations across Ireland and the UK.
Our services are designed to strengthen governance, enhance strategic direction, and ensure compliance with regulatory and funding requirements—while always staying true to the mission and values of the organisations we support.
Whether you need help navigating change, building leadership capacity, developing inclusive strategies, or improving board effectiveness, we bring sector insight, lived experience, and a people-first approach to every project.
"Our workshop was delivered at a great pace and offered valuable insight."
Charity Manager
"As a coach, I think Phillip is very observant. He is skilled at hearing what is not said and highlighting things I say that I am unaware of. He is very empathetic, and this made me comfortable to speak about topics that would generally be uncomfortable."
Women's Refuge Manager
"The training workshops exceeded my expectations. I was particularly impressed with the way Phillip facilitated our discussions and related these back to our responsibilities as trustees."
Chair, Day Care Centre, Co. Tipperary
"The requirements around the AHB standards are clearer to me and I have some action points that I will deliver. As a charity it is imperative that we are aware of the requirements and new developments in the area. Phillip provided an overview of the standards in a clear professional manner, and he was very knowledgeable in the area."
Manager, Approved Housing Body (AHB), Co. Dublin
"Impact Ireland's expertise and guidance have been instrumental in ensuring our association has been prepared to meet the statutory regulatory standards for AHBs.... their awareness of the gaps in our controls, systems, processes and procedures allowed the association to navigate the complex regulatory landscape and achieve compliance.
