‘Progress’ and ‘commitment to improve’ housing in Mansfield were identified following inspection
Progress, a commitment to improve, and completing actions in reasonable timescales are just three areas that have been highlighted following an inspection by the Regulator of Social Housing.
Mansfield District Council was inspected by the regulator in November 2024 and has received a C2 grading.
This rating means that while there are some areas of weakness that must be addressed to achieve the top rating of C1, overall, there is a good level of ‘assurance’ that the regulator’s four consumer standards are being achieved.
The purpose of the inspection was to measure the council’s compliance against the four standards—safety and quality, transparency, neighbourhood and community, and tenancy.
Councillor Anne Callaghan, Portfolio Holder for Housing, said: “As a social housing provider, ensuring that our services meet the needs of our tenants is our top priority. The C2 grade, which is the second highest grade possible, recognises that we are meeting the regulators’ consumer standards in many areas.
“The judgement report does identify some areas where improvement is needed to make sure that we are offering the best possible services for our tenants, and based on the feedback from the regulator, we are already on the journey of transformation to help us achieve this outcome.
“We look forward to working with the regulator on our improvement journey, and we will continue to work directly with our tenants, keeping them updated and involved.”
