Wolverhampton Homes wins national award

Wolverhampton Homes which manages 23,500 properties including 1,800 leaseholds on behalf of Wolverhampton City Council recently scooped a national award for engaging with tenants.

The £400 million Decent Homes programme won the National Housing Maintenance Forum’s ‘Best at Meeting Residents’ Needs’ award.

The judges praised the time, energy and effort Wolverhampton Homes had put in to reduce disruption for residents, particularly when considered with the scale of the project.

Director of Property Services, Shaun Aldis said: “This award for Wolverhampton Homes’ Decent Homes programme is a result of a combined effort by our residents, partners and staff.

“I was proud to accept this award and we will continue to work hard to give all our tenants and leaseholders the standard of home they should expect.”

Wolverhampton Homes is in the midst of the programme which involved bringing 23,500 properties up to a Government standard by fitting new kitchens, bathrooms and insulation.

Currently 600 homes are renovated at a cost of £1.25 million each week.

The decent homes programme will conclude in 2012. Currently the programme is nearing the end of its second year which will mean 10,500 homes have been completed.
