Our Self-Evaluation of Compliance

The Welsh Government set regulatory standards which we need to meet, and we assess the organisation against these standards every year.

Details of what we plan to do to not only remain compliant with the Regulatory Standards but also to achieve continuous improvement across all facets of our organisation can be found in our Regulatory Framework Improvement Plan.

Our Corporate Strategy

This maps out our path as an organisation for the next ten years, and reinforces our purpose, describing our vision, values, and strategic priorities.

It explains the three stages to our strategy, including the current stage,  ‘Brilliant Basics’. This stage is focused on getting our core repairs and maintenance services to where they should be post-COVID, laying a solid foundation from which we can build and grow, to tackle the national housing crisis and help regenerate Bridgend.

The Corporate Strategy also commits to our four corporate objectives, which together aim to ensure that our customers, their homes, our communities and our colleagues are safe and happy. This is at the heart of everything we do.
