ClwydAlyn, a provider of social and affordable homes across North Wales, has appointed three new board members. The strategic appointments of Emily Owen, Kevin Howell and Chris Mather have been made to support the organisation’s core corporate objective, to end poverty across North Wales.

A trio of appointments has been made to strengthen ClwydAlyn’s focus on the fundamental connection between decent, affordable homes and overall wellbeing. As a provider of more than 6,800 high-quality, secure, long-term homes across North and Mid Wales, the organisation launched a bold new corporate plan in 2025. The three new board members were selected for their extensive housing expertise, passion for strengthening communities and commitment to equality, helping to accelerate ClwydAlyn’s objectives to prevent homelessness, ensure everyone has access to excellent-quality warm homes, and work with partners to improve access to affordable, nutritious food.

Emily Owen has spent her career working to improve public services and tackle inequality. As Deputy Leader of Conwy County Borough Council and Cabinet Member for Housing, Homelessness and Service Transformation, she led changes to housing and homelessness services, strengthening prevention and bringing residents’ experiences into decision-making. Emily now runs her own consultancy, supporting organisations across Wales with strategy, policy, partnerships and public affairs, with a particular focus on housing and health.

“I’m delighted to be joining ClwydAlyn’s Board. My work in housing has shown me what a safe, affordable home can mean for a family’s health and for children growing up. I’m looking forward to hearing from residents and working with fellow Board members and colleagues to make sure those experiences help shape ClwydAlyn’s decisions.”

Kevin Howell brings more than 20 years’ experience in housing, community services and organisational leadership across Wales. He has held senior roles including Director of Housing Services at Codi Group, and National Director of the Chartered Institute of Housing Cymru. Offering extensive expertise in housing services, governance, transformation, customer experience and organisational improvement, Howell is passionate about strengthening communities and ensuring organisations deliver meaningful outcomes for stakeholders.

“I was really drawn to ClwydAlyn’s ambition to end poverty and the recognition that good housing has such an important part to play in achieving that. I’m looking forward to bringing my experience to the Board, listening to residents and working with colleagues and partners to build on ClwydAlyn’s success and continue making a real difference in the communities we serve.”

"I am delighted to join the Board and support the organisation's invaluable work. I’m passionate about creating opportunities, treating people with fairness and respect, and challenging inequality wherever it exists. I’m looking forward to helping ClwydAlyn make a positive difference to its communities.”

ClwydAlyn’s Board Chair, Cris McGuinness, who has been in post for three years, extended a warm welcome to the new Board members and said: “At a time when many people across North Wales are facing real challenges around the cost of living and access to affordable housing, it is important that we remain focused on providing safe, warm, high-quality homes at rents people can afford.

“We are delighted to welcome our three new Board members, whose wealth of experience, insight and leadership will reinforce our ability to support local communities and to help people access the homes they need.”
