Our aims and objectives
We have developed a clear vision for Six Town Housing following consultation with our customers and stakeholders.
Great communities, excellent services, inspiring people
We have also set clear priorities for Six Town Housing in consultation with our customers.
Six Town Housing wants to help build great communities so that in the areas we work in, people will;-
- have a pride in their home and neighbourhood,
- believe that their home is a healthy and pleasant place to live,
- be confident that their home and community has a great future.
Six Town Housing wants to provide excellent services by;-
- working with our partners to provide clean, comfortable and warm homes, in an attractive and safe environment
- doing even better than our customers expect by using both different and trusted approaches, and
- being an organisation that is seen to be respected, accountable, open and responsible for its actions
Six Town Housing believes all this can only be achieved by inspiring people through;-
- valuing everyone’s contributions; tenants, leaseholders, staff, board members and partners,
- providing opportunities for local people to become involved either as workers or contributors to developing services and
- setting high standards and aiming to be a leading housing organisation.
Details on how we will achieve our vision and deliver our priorities are included in our Business Plan.
