Welcome to the first edition of Street by Street for 2013. We’ve made some improvements to the magazine and this issue showcases a refreshed design and content based on your survey feedback, so thanks to everyone who took the time to complete it. The magazine will continue to keep you informed about everything from housing news to community initiatives. The theme of this issue is welfare reform. There are going to be lots of changes which will affect all types of benefits starting in April 2013. I believe these changes may be very confusing and worrying for some people. Therefore, it is really important that we understand how it all works and how we are going to cope. See page 6 for more details.

Our repairs and maintenance provider is changing and Interserve will supply the service from April 2013. I had the opportunity to get involved in the selection process by attending workshops and focus groups, meeting the Interserve team and helping to choose colours of their uniforms. I believe the main advantage of having one service provider is that all works such as repairs, grounds maintenance etc will be covered by one company. I am hopeful it will prove to be a smoother running service for everyone. See page 10 for more details. I hope you like the new style magazine and will continue to read and enjoy Street by Street.

Your views on our service We regularly undertake customer engagement activities to get feedback on the services we provide. Below is a snapshot of recommendations our various panels made recently: Housing Scrutiny Panel said: The staff within the antisocial behaviour team and the associated administrative teams should be subject to ‘mystery shoppers’ with regards to their telephone skills. What we’re doing: We are commissioning resident mystery shoppers over the next 3 months to assess the quality of our services including the quality of advice given to residents reporting ASB. Housing Scrutiny Panel said: We surveyed new tenants and less than half had been asked to sign up to the good neighbourhood agreement and pet agreement.
Thanks for your feedback
What we’re doing: The importance of ensuring that all new residents sign up to our good neighbour agreements, and where applicable, good pet agreements is agreed. We will use the scrutiny panel’s findings to ensure this area of work is improved. Mystery Shoppers said: Many shoppers experienced long delays in answering calls and being placed on hold What we’re doing: The customer contact centre is now better resourced, and a new head of customer services appointed who has identified a number of improvements based on mystery shopper feedback.

Thanks to everyone who took the time to complete the survey in our last issue. We had nearly 200 responses and have used the feedback to make improvements to Street by Street. We’re also using your feedback to write a new Resident Expenses and Incentives policy to encourage more residents to get involved.

Probationary tenancies explained Have you ever wondered what a probationary tenancy is? These types of tenancies are given to all new East Thames residents. As long as you keep to the terms of the probationary tenancy and there are no problems with anti social behaviour or damage to your property, then your tenancy will continue at the end of a 12 month period on the terms originally agreed with you. For more information call the customer contact centre on 0845 600 0830.

Money matters Featured story
Benefit chang Spare bedroom If you are aged over 61 and a half and have a spare room, your housing benefit will be cut by between £14 - £29 a week from April. That’s up to £125 a month, so it’s a good idea to start preparing for this cut straight away by taking a look at your options: 1. You might decide to stay in your home and make up the housing benefit shortfall. Before you decide to do this, make a detailed list of all the money you spend each month and all the money you receive, so you can be sure you can still afford to pay your rent and bills once your benefit is cut. 2. You could move to a smaller home. As well as reducing your rent, this would bring other financial benefits such as lower energy bills and cheaper council tax. If you do decide to move to a smaller home, get in touch, we may be able to offer some financial help with your move. 3. Finally, you could rent out your spare room to a lodger. You’ll find advice on renting out spare rooms at www.dwp.gov.uk/docs/hb-factsheet-rentingspare-room.rtf. Spare rooms can be advertised free of charge on websites such as www.spareroom. co.uk or www.gumtree.com. Make sure you talk to your neighbourhood manager about this first, as you’ll need written permission from East Thames to take in a lodger.
Benefit cap From July there will be a limit to how much benefit you receive. The limit is: • £500 a week for single parents, couples and couples with children • £350 a week for single people The government will add together all the benefit you receive, including income support, jobseeker’s allowance, employment and support allowance, child benefit, housing benefit and any help with mortgage costs. If the total you receive is higher than the weekly limits, your benefits will be reduced, some people may even lose all their housing benefit. To find out more about this change and to work out if your benefits will be affected, visit www.direct.gov.uk/benefitcap.

ges are coming… are you ready? Claiming housing benefit If you are claiming job seekers allowance or any other benefit, you may be asked by the Job Centre if you plan to claim housing benefit and asked to complete an intention

Changes to your rent Every year East Thames carries out a rent review to make sure our rents are in line with government guidelines. As a result, some residents will have their rent increased with affect from April. If you are affected, you will receive a notice during March to let you know about the changes. Included in the letter you will find answers to your frequently asked questions about the rent increase, and an explanation of how we calculate rents and service charges. You can also find these information sheets on our website at www.eastthames.co.uk/rent-review.
If your housing benefit is paid directly to us, we will inform the benefit office of the increases. If your claim has been suspended or is being assessed when you receive your rent increase letter, you should take it to the housing benefit office yourself. If your housing benefit is paid to you, you need to tell your benefit office about your new rent and service charges. If your benefit office does not confirm the changes with you by 11 April 2013, please contact the benefit office directly. If you think you should be getting a rent review notice from us but haven’t received one by the end of March, please contact us on 0845 600 0830, Mon-Fri 9am-5pm and ask for the rents and service charges team.

Case study: Deedar Deedar was unemployed for just over a year and had no experience in customer services, his preferred field. He was recommended to the Newham Workplace Hub by a friend and the team helped get him onto the Take Off Into Work programme at London City Airport. He has not looked back since. Take Off Into Work is a four week placement led by and based in London City Airport where participants work in departments such as security, passport
control, baggage handling and retail. After his time on the programme Deedar secured employment at Avis, one of the airport’s car hiring firms, where he works as station supervisor. He says, “I was really lucky that the Workplace Hub was right on my doorstep as I had no excuse but to go and look for jobs nearly every day. The team there really gave me the confidence to try a new career and the airport programme was an excellent opportunity.”

You can continue to call us on 0845 600 0830 from 8am to 8pm Monday to Friday and from 8am to 1pm on Saturdays. The line will be open 24 hours a day for emergency repairs.

partner because we know they will work with us to deliver an improved service. Using just one organisation for all our repairs, maintenance and estate services will bring a more coordinated approach. Interserve will also be proactive about keeping your home in good condition, via planned programmes of maintenance and property MOTs. This means that, as much as possible, Interserve will spot problems before they arise so you need fewer repairs in the long run. They will also run a dedicated repairs call centre, so when you call to report a repair, you’ll get the help you need.
Neil Sutherland, National Director at Interserve, said: “On behalf of Interserve, I want to let you know how excited we are as we begin our new partnership with you and East Thames. I was delighted in January to meet residents to establish the things that matter to you. This opportunity was very helpful to us. We will continue to work closely with residents to ensure the contract is meeting your needs and expectations.�
