This is a hugely prestigious award that celebrates and recognises the significant integrated work—which we're proud to be a part of—to improve the health and wellbeing of residents of Walsall. 😊 Well done to everyone who continues to work so hard to make this partnership such a success.

The right thing for the planet is the right thing for our customers and communities. 🌏 ♻️ As a social landlord, #sustainability is much wider than the protection of the environment. It is about creating thriving communities that support our customers in their homes, whether by reducing #fuelpoverty or achieving #netzerocarbon by 2050. We’re proud to be sharing our Sustainability Report, which demonstrates our commitment 👉🏻 whg.uk.com/sustainability/

We spoke to @natfednews about how taking up the Chairs' Challenge supported us to recruit six board and committee members with diverse backgrounds 👉🏻 housing.org.uk/our-work/gove…

We're having a blast celebrating our 20th anniversary 🎉   Today marks the start of a week's worth of celebration, and it's been all about kindness. (With some Bhangra dancing 💃🕺)   We had various stalls for customers and colleagues to visit, all themed around being kind to:   🧘‍♀️ yourself and your well-being 🏘 your neighbours and the community 🌎 and to the planet   After our opening ceremony with Dhol drumming and Bhangra dancers, @whgGaryF, our Group Chief Executive, gave a brief speech which included the following:   "It's a huge honour to reflect on what we've achieved over the past 20 years. From investing over one billion into our homes, providing services that are having a positive impact on the community, to housing thousands of people across the Midlands." 📣 And the celebration doesn’t stop here! Throughout this week we’ll be hosting a range of activities for our customers and colleagues to enjoy - watch this space.

We've taken handover of another two homes as part of our small site project to provide much-need #affordablehousing across Walsall. 🏡🗝 This is the third of seven disused garage sites we are transforming into affordable housing, and these homes are now ready for customers to move in. Our small-scale development sites will help to create a positive impact on the surrounding communities and allow customers to live happy and comfortable lives.
