Greatwell Homes are now recognised as one of Customer Engagement Experts in the country. Fantastic feedback from Tpas and an external independent panel highly commended us for our approach after completing a rigorous desk top investigation and speaking to customers and staff to validate their findings.

As an organisation we invest heavily and put a lot of time and effort into customer Involvement compared with other providers, this means we must be great at what we do.

Achieving the accreditation confirms that our approach to engagement and the outcomes delivered show value for money for our investment and it is well worth the effort."

What people say

Tpas Landlord Accreditation

The accreditation process refocuses our minds to real customer engagement and provides an independent check in our organisational wide assurance mapping, which forms part of our HCA governance framework. It enables us to continually improve our services to customers and will consider if our customer engagement service provides value for money. We find that the main benefit for us is to look at what we have done in the past and continue to move forward to ensure that we  identify better ways of doing things. This would then lead to increased customer satisfaction and improved services for our customers.  Wendy Wolfe: Customer Engagement Manager, Ongo Homes
