Customer relations, complaints and feedback

At Anchor Hanover we know that customer feedback is essential to helping us improve the services we provide.

We value all types of feedback and have a responsive customer feedback process to ensure we can respond to all compliments, complaints and suggestions quickly and effectively.

People talking and smilingAnchor Hanover’s complaints policy and procedure

We’d like to think that we get things right most of the time, but we know that occasionally things may go wrong. We operate a 2 stage complaints process for these cases. As an organisation that is committed to listening to our customers and improving our service, we really do want to hear from you if you’ve had a problem.

We will always do our best to make sure you can contact us easily. Part of this will involve putting in place additional measures, where it’s considered necessary and reasonable to do so, which would assist our communication with you. This might include for example providing correspondence in large print or by facilitating access to a language line translation support service. Just let us know if there is any difficulty and we will do our best to help. 

Often the quickest way to put things right is for you to speak with the local manager who works at your location. We do appreciate though that sometimes this isn’t possible, or you’ll want to contact us directly, so we’ve made this easy for you to do.

For detailed information about our complaints policy and procedure, including when you will receive responses, our use of mediation and details of outside agencies you can contact, download our Complaints, Compliments & Suggestions helpsheet.

Customer Satisfaction Surveys

Two people talkingAnchor Hanover regularly conduct a variety of customer satisfaction surveys to capture feedback and measure customer satisfaction across all our services. For our Housing tenants & residents, these surveys are conducted by telephone, email and through the post by market research organisation, TLF (The Leadership Factor) and the results are reviewed and shared with key stakeholders across the organisation so we can learn and improve from the feedback we receive. 

The surveys are also regularly used by our customers to let us know what we do well, so we can recognise the contributions of Anchor Hanover staff in making a difference to our customers’ experience. The results are also shared with our Residents Council and through our regular customer communication channels. 

Your Care Rating

Anchor Hanover care homes have signed up to Your Care Rating, the largest and most authoritative care home customer satisfaction survey.

This independent annual survey gives all residents living within our care homes an opportunity to provide their views and feedback via a confidential and standardised channel.

The survey is conducted by leading market research organisation, Ipsos MORI and the results are published each year publicly.

We are keen to hear from you

Jon EarnshawAnchor’s Hanover's Customer Relations Manager, Jonathan Earnshaw is always keen to hear from our customers;

"We pride ourselves on delivering a high standard of service, though realise that things can go wrong from time to time, and when that happens, our aim is to resolve your complaint as quickly as possible.

"We're just as keen as you are to get to the bottom of whatever the complaint might be, so please talk to us as soon as possible and we'll do the best we can to help find a solution. You might even be helping other customers in future by bringing it to our attention.  We also really like to hear feedback on what we do well or Anchor Hanover colleagues who make a difference to you so we can share your feedback with them, so please do let us know."

We look forward to hearing about your experiences, and more importantly learning from your feedback.
 

Self-Assessment

In July 2020 the Housing Ombudsman launched its Complaint Handling Code. Compliance with this Code forms part of the membership obligations set out in the Housing Ombudsman  Scheme and Landlords such as Anchor Hanover are expected to comply with the requirements of this Code.

In order to ensure compliance, the Housing Ombudsman has a self-assessment this must be completed by Landlords and published on their websites by 31 December 2020.  Read a copy of our Self-Assessment here.
