Regulator of Social Housing We’re regulated by the Regulator of Social Housing (RSH), which sets the standards all social housing providers must meet. These cover two main areas: Economic regulation – how we’re governed, financially managed and deliver value for money. Consumer regulation – the safety, quality and transparency of our homes and services. Standards we meet The Regulator of Social Housing carries out a check every year to confirm financial strength and good governance, and an inspection every four years. Our most recent inspection in 2024 rated us: G1 – Governance V1 – Financial Viability You can read more about these ratings on the GOV.UK website.
