This is an important change that will help us improve how we manage and deliver Council Housing services for our tenants.

We expect the move to take a couple of weeks. During this time, our teams will continue to work and Council Housing services will remain available. However, while we move information across to the new system, our teams will have limited access to some tenant, property and account information.

This means you can continue to contact us as normal, but please be aware that we may not be able to respond to non-urgent enquiries as quickly as we usually would.
This may affect enquiries across all our Council Housing services, including repairs and maintenance, rent and income, tenancy matters, neighbourhood services and other housing enquiries.

🚨 𝗨𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 𝗲𝗻𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀

Please do not delay contacting us if you have an urgent or emergency housing issue. These will continue to be prioritised while we move to our new housing system.

If you need support with your rent or have an income-related query, you can continue to contact the Income Management Team on 01524 582541 as normal.
Please be aware that during the changeover period, the team may not always have access to the most up-to-date account information.

🏠 We want to hear from you!
Our Tenant Survey 2026 is taking place during October and November.
If you're contacted by Acuity Research & Practice, you'll have the chance to tell us what you think about your home and the services we provide. The telephone survey takes around 10 minutes and calls will come from a local 01524 number.
Your views can help us improve our services.

Noticed condensation on your windows?💧

Condensation is common in colder weather and can build up on windows, walls and other cold surfaces. Left unchecked, excess moisture can contribute to damp and mould.

Small changes can help reduce the amount of moisture in your home.

📣 Residents helping to improve how we handle complaints
Our new Complaints Steering Group met for the first time on Friday 16 October.

Residents and officers looked at the updated Complaints Policy and talked about how complaints information could be made clearer and easier to understand.

💬 Residents told us they would like:
✅ Clear, visual information about complaints performance
✅ Plain-English letters and less jargon
✅ A simple step-by-step complaints process
✅ A shorter, easy-to-read summary of the Complaints Policy
✅ Clearer feedback showing what has changed following complaints
✅ Opportunities for residents to look at anonymised complaints learning and help improve services

What happens next?
The group will look at complaints performance, the complaints process, letters and communications, training and how we learn from complaints. Recommendations and actions will also be tracked so residents can see what happens as a result of their involvement. 💙 You Said, We Did

You said: Complaints information needs to be easier to understand and residents need clearer feedback.
We will: Bring visual information and complaints documents to residents for review, track recommendations and share updates showing what has changed.

🏠 Your voice helps us improve Council Housing services.
