Each year they invest in a diverse range of neighbourhood projects that help create strong, vibrant communities. In 2010, the NHF was one of a number of organisations to successfully campaign to prevent energy companies charging pre-pay meter customers more than quarterly billed customers.[1] Members of the Federation possess approximately two million five hundred thousand residences.
