Sharing how we're performing against the things that matter most to you.
As an open and honest organisation, we want you to know how well we’re performing our services. Sharing regular performance updates makes sure that you have visibility on how we’re performing on the things that matter most to you.
Find out more about what we're doing to improve in some of these areas, as well as how we monitor customer satisfaction using our transactional surveys, in the drop downs below.
You can also find out more about how we performed last year in our 2022-23 Customer Annual Review.

Our approach to gathering a range of customer feedback includes running both transactional and perception surveys. This helps us to know what matters most to you and improving what we do.
You may receive a text or an email from us asking how we did after you’ve had an interaction with us, such as having a repair carried out or contacting our customer experience team. These are our transactional surveys and the measures that we report on every 3 months are based on the feedback we gather from these surveys.
We also work with TLF Research who carry out customer satisfaction surveys by telephone for a sample of our customers four times a year. If you’re selected for interview they’ll ask you about things like your overall experience with us, how you rate our different services, and how you think we could improve. You may not necessarily have had a recent interaction with us. This is our perception survey and some of the measures we report in our annual review are gathered from the results of this type of survey.
From April 2023, all housing associations are required to survey their social housing residents using the same set of Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSMs) questions, prescribed by the Regulator of Social Housing (RSH), asked in the same way and in the same order. Having a consistent set of questions will better help us and the Regulator identify where we need to improve and where we are doing well. Like all other housing associations, we’ll have to report our results to the Regulator in April 2024. We must also publish our results, so please look out for these on our website and in our newsletters.
If you receive a phone call from TLF Research, we’d be very grateful if you would take the time to provide your feedback on your experience with us. We really value your feedback.
We are still focusing on the three areas that we know are most important to you – repairs, getting in contact with us easily and being responded to.
We have seen a significant improvement in our call wait times and the % of calls being answered within 15 mins. This is due to the extra advisers that have been recruited and are now gaining experience in handling your contacts. We will continue to drive improvements in this area.
Our repair wait times for routine works are taking a bit longer to see the improvement as it has taken more time to employ trade operatives. We hope to be able to report an improvement by the next quarter.
Our call back performance has also got better over the last three months and we will continue to support our teams to meet this target.
We have seen a slight increase in the satisfaction with complaint handling. We know that lots of dissatisfaction is linked to long wait times for non-urgent repairs, so hope to see a reduction in complaints once repair wait times improve.
