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 using our own performance data, others via an annual tenant perception survey.

TSM Return 2025/26

Click here to see the Survey we sent out to all tenants.

Here is a breakdown of How we performed across all of the TSM’s and here is the detailed report from the tenant survey.

From the results we collected from the tenant in 2024/25 survey we developed an Action Plan that detailed how we would respond to the feedback our tenants provided us with. We have updated that plan based on what we did and are now writing a refreshed version based on the 2025/26 data that we will publish later in the year.

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

The Regulator wants to make sure we:

• Are well run and offer good value

The four consumer standards

  We must give you a safe, good quality home and landlord services.
• Transparency, Influence and Accountability Standard
  We must be open, fair, and respectful so you can raise concerns and help shape services.
• Tenancy Standard
  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.
