Tenant Satisfaction Measures 

The government asks all housing associations to report a set of performance and satisfaction numbers each year. See our scores from last year.

This is just one of the ways we listen to your views. You may be contacted to take part in a satisfaction survey over the phone or via email. The questions we ask you are called ‘Tenant Satisfaction Measures’.  
 

The survey

We contact a random group of residents to complete the survey each year, this might be over the phone or via email. The survey is quite short, it should only take 5 to 7 minutes to complete.
 

How we use the results

We read every piece of feedback you share and use it to spot ways to improve. Sometimes we can make changes straightaway and sometimes we use your feedback to help us plan for improvements in the future. We will tell you how your feedback is impacting on our services through our regular communications.

The surveys are completed anonymously, however, if you are dissatisfied with your experience, you have the option to give permission for us to contact you to talk about your experience and try to make it right.

Tenant satisfaction measures 2023-24 

Each year, we contact some of our residents by phone and by email and ask them to share feedback on topics set by the government. Your satisfaction scores are an essential part of how we measure if we are performing well enough. In 2023-24, we conducted a customer satisfaction survey with 995 residents (including residents of our retirement housing communities) and shared owners to make sure we had enough responses for the results to reflect the wider experiences of residents of different ages, abilities and backgrounds. The residents were selected at random. This is called a sampling approach.

We worked with a partner, CX Feedback, who contacted residents on our behalf. They are an experienced customer feedback agency who follow the Market Research Society code of conduct to make sure their approach is ethical and independent.  

They asked everyone the same 12 questions, as set out by the government, as well as asking why residents felt satisfied or dissatisfied with our service and checking if residents gave permission for us to follow up on negative feedback to try to put things right. We completed the survey four times throughout the year, asking different residents to complete the survey in April, July, November, and January. To make sure people without access to online services were represented in the results, CX Feedback completed many surveys over the phone as well as by email.

We must publish your satisfaction scores alongside other important performance information that lets you know how well we are performing as your landlord. This page includes the results of our Tenant Satisfaction Measures for 2023-24. To view the results, click on the topic you are interested on from the list to see our scores drop down. We are currently working on our Residents Report 2023-24, which will be published in the autumn and include more information about how we are using your feedback and how we plan to improve our services this year. You can also find more performance information throughout the year on our residents performance dashboard
