We’re excited to introduce our new tenant webpage designed just for you, which is all about transparency and action, to see how your feedback is making a real difference. We’re going to be highlighting the feedback you’ve shared with us so everything ‘you’ve said’ and what action we’ve taken in response so what ‘we did’ with it and the impact of those changes.
You said and we did – here’s what your feedback has helped us change and improve services for the better.

Here's an overview of the progress we're making putting your feedback into action. This covers April 2023 - October 2024.
Completed projects
Procurement
Influenced by the Consumer Regulations, this Scrutiny project reviews our approach to tenant involvement in the procurement and contract management of tenant facing services.
Diversity in Retirement Living
We want everyone to feel like they can be themselves, which is why we've been working to make sure our schemes are inclusive and welcoming for everyone.
Successions
With the help of our Involved Tenants, we took a look into our Successions service, where a tenant might be allowed to carry on living in a property if someone, usually the lead tenant, passes away.
Aids & adaptations
To ensure our aids and adaptations service is working well, we reviewed the whole process with the help of our Involved Tenants.
Projects in progress
Communication during repairs
As repairs is one of the key drivers of tenant satisfaction, our My Scrutiny group identified communications around repairs as a high priority to be evaluated.
Local level communication
We wanted to build better connections between our teams and our tenants, so we took a look at how we communicate to you about your neighbourhood.
Tenant influence
This project will look at any changes we can make to help improve our Boards understanding of our tenants needs to influence and support our decision making.
Energy service charges and behaviours
Looking at how we can help with rising energy costs, while seeing if we can support you with adopting smart energy behaviours.
Coming soon!
Below are some of the projects we’re thinking of exploring next year with your help. If there are any you’re really interested in and want us to prioritise, or if you have any other suggestions for new projects, please let us know by emailing our Tenant Scrutiny team on customerscrutiny@midlandheart.org.uk
Tenant safety
In line with building safety regulations, we look at how well informed our tenants are and how else we can improve and build on engagement around building safety awareness.
Additional needs
Our tenants shared that they feel a key priority of ours should be to demonstrate that we listen and understand their needs, especially if they have a particular vulnerability.
