We know that sometimes things go wrong. It really helps if you let us know straight away so that we can put things right as quickly as possible. We try to learn from our mistakes and our Senior Management Team regularly reviews complaints to ensure that we learn from them.
We want you to enjoy the experience of living in our homes or being one of our co-op clients.
Please tell us if you're happy or unhappy with our services or with other issues related to your housing. We're committed to providing a quality customer service to all our residents and to help us achieve this we're open to comments, compliments, suggestions and complaints from customers on any part of the organisation. Its important for us to get this feedback, good or bad, as we use this to continually improve our service.

Annual complaints performance and service improvement report and Board’s response
The annual complaints performance and service improvement report for 2023-24 along with the Board’s response, is included below in ‘related files'. One of Co-op Homes' Values is ‘We Learn’.

Document Consultation
