Performance indicators
Our priority is offering residents an excellent service. Our performance over the past year shows how we are delivering in key areas. By giving the figures for three month periods, you can see the trends. You can also see how other housing associations performed between October and December 2009 which is the last full three month period before the publication of our residents' magazine Buzz. The next Buzz is in July 2010.
