Customer Senate: Salix Homes
Home2Work: Derby Homes Aiming to address homelessness in the area, this scheme gives residents the chance to participate in four week placement programmes to gain a range of experiences and transferrable skills. Home2Work also offers residents advice on basic work principles such as time-keeping and appropriate attire. Since the scheme began, a number of participants have gone on to take on jobs, volunteering or further education. Fast Track Assessment Service: Solihull Community Housing
The Salix Homes Customer Senate is leading the way in resident-led self-regulation. The Senate, made up of 14 residents from across Salford, is now an integral part of the ALMO's governance structure, scrutinizing all areas of the organisation. As a result of improvements suggested by the Senate, Salix Homes has saved £50,000 of funds.
Standard waiting times of two to six months for disability adaptations are being dramatically cut to just 10 days with Solihull Community Housing's 'Fast Track Assessment Service'. Partnered with Solihull Care Trust, this common sense approach which according to judge Michael Gelling "gives tenants back their quality of life" bypasses the full Occupational Therapy assessments.
Here is a great way to help save the planet and save money too.
If you pay for Cavity Wall or loft insulation now and then later decide to buy a central heating system or renewable energy product from us we will give you your money back in cash*. Cavity Wall or Loft Insulation costs the average household just £199 per measure and if you have both measures it's just £298.
It’s no great secret that we are always looking at ways to entice customers to reduce their impact on the environment and we think this offer is unbeatable.
Boilers account for around 60% of the carbon dioxide emissions in a gas heated home. By replacing an old G rated boiler with a new high efficiency condensing boiler and improving your heating controls, you will significantly cut your home's carbon dioxide emissions and could save as much as £235 a year on your energy bills. With this in mind it is quite likely that you will want to change your old central heating system in the next few years.
Also the British government have just released feed in tariffs to help convince people to buy solar panels. The idea is that people will get paid for the power that is generated from sustainable sources. We understand you might not be that interested right now but we know that in the next few years when energy prices have no doubt gone up again, these feed in tariffs will help to convince you to have them fitted. The average UK household will stand to be able to earn around £450 per year just for having solar panels fitted and using them to generate their own sustainable power.
Of course you could have a central heating or renewable system fitted now, and take advantage of our Buy Now Pay Later offer and get FREE Cavity wall and FREE loft insulation.
Call us for details mentioning our website is where you saw the deal advertised.

The Chinese market is showing huge growth in the renewable energy sector and Warm Front Ltd are looking for strategic partners to help us position ourselves favourably in the marketplace and thus take advantage of the new government backed feed in tariffs. Our customers expect the best service and advice and this trip will enable us to be ahead of the curve when it comes to understanding this technology. The feed in tariffs have been brought in by the British government to help kick start the solar market in the UK. The Chinese have a wealth of knowledge in the manufacture and implementation of new technologies that take advantage of the earth’s natural resources, particularly the sun.
This trip will help us source new materials and other products promoting energy efficiency including microCHP, voltage optimisation, smart metering and digital i/o.
We also aim to identify partners in China and estimate opportunities for exporting our specialist software toolkits facilitating complex asset and project management of large scale retrofit housing projects.
