Tenant Annual Report 2025
Section 10: Helping tenants live independently and safely
We've completed hundreds of home adaptations to help tenants with mobility issues, health conditions, and disabilities live more comfortably and independently. Here are just a few brief examples:
A tenant couldn't use the bath after surgery
We installed a level-access shower so she could bathe on her own.
We also fitted stair rails to help her safely climb the stairs.
She said the work was excellent and the changes have made a big difference to her life.
Two older tenants struggled to leave their home, even with handrails
They rely on an adapted vehicle to get out and about.
We built a custom ramp with handrails, replacing the old ones.
Despite limited space, the result is safe and accessible.
They're very happy with the adaptions which have allowed them to retain their independence.
A wheelchair user had trouble moving around her home, especially near doorways
We installed a level-access shower, combined the toilet and bathroom, and widened internal doors.
Because the walls couldn't be altered structurally, we repositioned doorframes to widen openings by three inches.
This made it much easier for her to move around her home.
