Tenant Satisfaction Measures 2023-24

The Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSMs) have been introduced by the Regulator of Social Housing in England to help them see how well housing providers are delivering services, and making sure they are providing good quality homes and services. They also show our tenants how well we are performing as their landlord in the following areas:

  • Keeping properties in good repair
  • Maintaining building safety
  • Respectful and helpful engagement
  • Effective handling of complaints
  • Responsible neighbourhood management
  • Overall satisfaction with services
The Big conversation

The TSMs consist of 22 measures: 12 of these come from surveying tenants about their satisfaction with services, and 10 come from the information we hold. This includes data in relation to building safety, anti-social behaviour and complaint handling. To find out more about the survey click here.

We gathered feedback from our tenants through a Tenant Perception Survey which was sent out between 8th September 2023 and 18th October 2023. We used text message, postal, online and telephone surveys to gain feedback. A copy of the survey, including the accompanying letter, can be found here.

The survey was sent to 6,453 tenants and 1,211 responses were received. We worked with an external company called TP Tracker, to make sure the survey was delivered independently and that the responses we received were representative of our whole tenant population. Full details of our approach can be found here.

Next Steps

We recognise that our results are not as good we would like them to be, so we are making a series of changes to improve the services we deliver to you.

We have shared these results with our strategic Tenant Committee, Gateway Central, who have scrutinised the results and will continue to have oversight of our work to improve services.

We have used the results from this survey, along with learning identified from tenant complaints, and tenant feedback from consultation activities, to create a Service Transformation Strategy. This strategy focusses on three themes:

  • Putting customers at the heart of all we do
  • Delivering brilliant basics
  • Continuous improvement based on tenant feedback

The strategy and action plan clearly set out how we will improve our services to better meet the needs of our tenants, helping us to improve our performance. For further details of the strategy, click here.

We continually look to increase satisfaction across all the measures and have worked with tenants to improve our satisfaction ratings in these areas. Below is a selection of some of the work we have done so far to achieve this:
