Tenant Satisfaction Measures - TSMs
The Government and Regulator of Social Housing have introduced a new way to measure the performance of all social housing providers in England, called Tenant Satisfaction Measuresand this time your views will decide how we score.
We are using an independent company called IFF-Research to survey customers and the results from these surveys will be made publicly available.
You may receive a phone call or email from them (customers are chosen randomly by IFF-Research), asking about the services we provide. It would be great if you could take the time to answer the questions. It shouldn’t take longer than 10 minutes to complete. We will let you know when we will publish the results.
