The Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSMs) have been introduced by the Regulator of Social Housing in England to measure how well landlords are doing to provide good quality homes and services.

The measures focus on five key themes:

Keeping properties in good repair
Maintaining building safety
Respectful and helpful engagement
Effective handling of complaints
Reponsible neighbourhood management

There are 22 measures, 12 of these measures come directly from resident surveys while 10 come from information we measure and hold ourselves.

Together they have been designed to raise standards and improve the quality of social housing by ensuring we are accountable for the services delivered to you.

When reporting the TSM results to the Regulator, we will submit scores for two groups of residents, low cost renters and low cost homeowners. Here we also report performance for residents not included in these two groups (other tenures) as well as a composite score that includes all residents. Find out which groups of residents these terms cover here.

Taking everything into account, how satisfied or dissatisfied are you with the service provided by NHG? 48.4%

Overall satisfaction

Overall for the period surveyed was found to be 48.4%. For low cost renters the score was 55.6% and for low cost home owners it was 27.5%.

Although disappointing, these figures reinforce the need for us to shift our organisational focus so all of us are truly prioritising providing a great service to residents as set out in our corporate strategy.
