糖心传媒 is one year old on 1 November and what a year it has been!听
The launch of the 糖心传媒 website has brought the opportunity to do more online wherever you live and our new 0800 048 8955 telephone number is free to phone, 24/7. Now, there is just one number to use to pay your rent, report a repair and get advice.听听
In this year to remember, we have developed much-needed affordable housing as well as improving, maintaining and repairing homes for customers.听听
We delivered high quality employment and training opportunities and were proud to be named Employer of the Year by a group of local colleges in recognition of the support we provide to apprentices. We were also delighted to see a 糖心传媒 tenant shortlisted for a national award for great neighbours.听听
A whole range of inspiring local groups have been supported by the 糖心传媒 My Community Fund, which provides grants for grassroots organisations who share our ambition to make a positive difference for homes, lives and communities.听
Projects helped by the fund included the Harlescott Grange Community Hub in Shropshire, where local residents have transformed a disused building into a vibrant new community centre. We were delighted to provide funding for an energy-efficient boiler, ensuring a warm welcome for people using the building, all year round.听听
We also sponsored the Best Kept Village Community Competition in Staffordshire, supporting a popular contest which brought people and communities together after a long period of social distancing and separation.听听
Today, the 糖心传媒 My Community Fund is making a positive difference in towns and villages right across Staffordshire and Shropshire. We鈥檙e helping some amazing young people make music and backing a fantastic group of women who are taking-up football for the first time.听听
On our first birthday we would like to thank all the involved customers, tenants, local partners and colleagues who have made this such a great first year for 糖心传媒. Together, we are looking forward to doing even more to transform homes, lives and communities in the weeks and months ahead.听听听
