A big welcome to Housing Manager Laura who joined us in October 2020.

Laura brings a huge variety of experience and knowledge having worked in community development, specialised homes for over 50s, anti social behaviour teams and lots more.

Laura also brings a passion for making a real difference to residents and is excited to share our brand new community fund project.

“One of the most important things is providing excellent customer service and this is definitely a priority of mine. I want to make sure that all residents have a great Staffs Housing experience.”

“A home is so much more than just bricks and mortar, so I wanted to create a stronger focus on community development and maximizing support for our most vulnerable residents.”

With this in mind, Laura introduced the Staffs Housing community fund project. A £500 fund customers can apply for to support small projects that improve or develop
communities.

“The fund was introduced to help develop positive projects within our neighbourhoods. Creating homes our residents are proud of doesn’t stop at the front door. If residents are happy and like where they live, they’re more likely to stay and care for their neighbourhood. In my last role I was able to introduce a similar community fund and saw first hand the amazing impact it had within the community.”

“We would love to see as many residents as possible involved in projects that help to improve the wellbeing, mental health and the physical health of the people living in our communities. Residents help us grow and develop our services which in turn gives back to them.

"If you’re involved in a community project or have an idea which would bring positive change to your neighbourhood please apply!”
