Hello and welcome... …to Life, our resident magazine.
with five regional heads of housing, and 16 operations managers leading the area managers in their districts. I hope the worst of the pandemic is now behind us, so I’ll be looking to evolve our service. I want to ensure resident opinions and changing needs inform its development and hope you’ll share your views. Offering an inclusive service is also important, I’m looking forward to hearing views from our new Minority Ethnic and Sensory Awareness resident groups (see page 11). Congratulations to our Loving Later Life Award winners (pages 8-9). If their
stories spark your interest, check out details of our Be Well offer, which has plenty of ideas to help you look after your wellbeing. I hope you enjoy this issue and you can share your feedback on it using the details below.
I ’m delighted to have joined the Anchor team. In the housing service this includes Sarah Chatfield Director of Homeownership, Graeme Hall Director of Customer Services and I’m currently recruiting to the vacant director of rented housing position. With just over 48,000 properties to manage, last summer we established dedicated rented and homeownership teams,
