2024 has seen the introduction of various safety requirements to how all landlords manage high-rise residential buildings. During discussions regarding these important legal requirements, there were two main areas of focus highlighted. These are external wall / cladding and resident engagement.
We were prompt to respond to these instructions and quickly instructed an investigation into both high-rise external walls systems at Kings House and Vickers House.
As a result, we're proud to share that both high rise blocks have now been fully corrected and carry no external wall risk. This places the residents of in the top 29% of all social landlords in the country with all external wall/cladding concerns 100% fixed. This is something we're very proud of.
