My Voice
Listening to you is the best way for us to improve our services and make changes that are in line with your needs. This is why we've worked with customers to create a number of ways for your voice to be heard.
My Voice allows you to work closely with our customer scrutiny team, who will make sure that your views are listened to and changes are made. We'd love to get to know you and help you to find the role that suits you best.
Join in from your own sofa!

*Our current survey is about reporting our performance*
Will you actually use the information I give to make changes?
Yes! Of course. We really value the time and information we get from all of our involved customers.
The feedback we've taken from past activities has lead to changes in many areas.
Here are a couple of changes we've recently made as a result of My Voice:
You told us that: you'd like to be able to do more on our app including report repairs.
We listened and now: we’re developing our app so you can do more, this will include a pilot which will allow you to report repairs to us online.
You told us that: you'd like the aids and adaptations process to be a little quicker when applying for support.
We listened and now: we've changed our approvals process to speed things up. You'll get a decision sooner and work in your home can be completed faster.
