Our 2024/2025 performance against tenant satisfaction measures

In April 2023, the Regulator of Social Housing introduced Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSMs). These enable tenants to scrutinise their landlord’s performance, give landlords insight about where they can do better, and allow the Regulator to see which landlords may need to make improvements

We need to report our performance against a total of sixteen TSMs:

Perception measures

Nine TSMs measure customer feedback about our services, collected via surveys.

During October and November 2024 we commissioned independent market research company, Acuity, to carry out 517 interviews amongst a representative group of our customers to gather feedback about their perception of Sparrow including performance against the nine TSMs.

Management information

Seven TSMs measure our performance across operations and service management. These include legal compliance (such as essential health and safety checks in homes); the number of customer complaints; and the number of antisocial behaviour cases.
