Our Performance

Our performance in social housing

We work hard to make sure your home is safe, well-managed, and that you get the support you need. The Regulator of Social Housing checks how well we do this.

Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSMs)

Since April 2023, we’ve been collecting data on 22 Tenant Satisfaction Measures. These help us understand how well we’re doing.

They cover:

  • Keeping homes in good repair
  • Building safety
  • Respectful and helpful service
  • Handling complaints
  • Managing neighbourhoods

Some are measured by our performance, others by a tenant survey.

Complaints and the Housing Ombudsman

The Housing Ombudsman is a free, independent service that helps tenants with complaints.

If we don’t resolve your complaint, you can contact them.

We follow the Complaint Handling Code, which helps us:

  • Fix problems quickly
  • Learn from complaints
  • Improve our services

    You can view the council's Corporate & Housing Complaints Policy which implements the Housing Ombudsmen Complaint Handling Code

What the Regulator looks for

The Regulator wants to make sure we:

  • Are well run and offer good value

    We must let homes fairly and manage tenancies properly.
  • Neighbourhood and Community Standard
    We must work with others to keep your area safe and well looked after.
