It's not too late to join our Tenant Scrutiny Panel! 📢

The panel will meet on 6 November to look at how we communicate with tenants, focusing on areas where tenants have raised concerns and made complaints.

Together, we'll make sure that tenants receive the right information, at the right time, and in the way that’s right for them. We will take your recommendations on board to help improve our processes for all tenants.

You don't need any experience of being on a panel or housing knowledge, all the training and support you need is provided. What matters most is your experience as a tenant and your willingness to share your views.

The significant improvements we’ve made to damp, mould, and condensation in our homes has been highlighted by the Regulator of Social Housing but that doesn’t mean we stop there. We are committed to continual improvement, especially where the safety of our tenants is concerned.

If you notice anything in your home that is cause for concern, please let us know straight away! Whether it’s a potential hazard in or around your home, or anti-social behaviour. We’re here to help with advice, repairs, and support.

This summer we had an inspection by the Regulator of Social Housing and we’re proud that the progress we’ve made with damp, mould, and condensation, fire safety, and our repairs process has been recognised.

We know that there is still much to do and we’re using the regulator’s feedback to plan what we improve next.

We couldn’t do it without your help, through feedback on consultations, compliments and complaints, or discussions held by our tenant panels, you help us to shape our services for all tenants.

That often-overlooked path behind a block of flats? It's a fire escape route.

Over the summer our estate caretaking team spent two full days on two estates, Turnsteads in Cleckheaton and Eightlands in Dewsbury, giving the communal spaces a deep clean, right down to the hard-to-reach spots. Rear escape routes cut back. Bin stores emptied. Weeds off the steps and paths. Flytipping taken away.

While they were there, the team knocked on doors and spoke to 44 residents about their estates. Fourteen things were referred for repair or follow-up as a result.

Demolition has begun this week on the first of the two blocks at Berry Brow, starting with Holme Park Court.

In the video, you can see dust suppression being used while the large machinery carefully brings the building down in sections.
