Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSMs)

The government’s Regulator of Social Housing sets regulatory standards that all social housing landlords must meet. 

Social housing landlords, such as councils and housing associations, are checked to make sure they provide good quality homes and services. 

As part of these standards, the regulator has introduced Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSMs) which tenants can use to understand how well their landlord is doing.

    Our results 2023/2024

    Each year we report to the regulator on two types of Tenant Satisfaction Measures - management information and tenant perception’ measures.

    Our 2023/2024 Tenant Satisfaction Measures have been collected using information from 2,926 applicable households.

    The survey received 433 survey responses from tenants. A total of 85% of the responses were from tenants in 'general needs' accommodation and 15% from sheltered housing schemes.

    In autumn 2024 the regulator will publish the Tenant Satisfaction Measures results for all housing providers across England.

    What we're doing to improve tenant satisfaction

    Our Housing and Improvement Programme will support and monitor improved performance against all Tenant Satisfaction Measures.

    Actions we’re taking include:

    • condition surveys on all our properties
    • fire safety works to correct any issues
    • compulsory complaint training for all our housing staff
    • develop a resident engagement strategy
    • run resident focus groups
    • refresh all our policies and procedures

    We will be starting to collect resident feedback for the next year from October 2024.
