working with you
Working with you through our customer engagement programme, we can shape our service delivery and get feedback on the support that we provide. Our Values Group, with up to seven tenant members, helps us to ensure that our customers’ voices are captured, listened to, and acted upon. This is one of several ways, including our annual STAR survey of tenants, that we engage with your home communities. Your feedback is a critical part of how we adapt our services and make our decisions.
