Your Voice, Our Action
Tower Hamlets Council is addressing housing management failings, with a new domestic abuse policy approved as part of its Your Voice, Our Action programme.
Tower Hamlets Council's Housing Management (Cabinet) Sub-Committee approved a new domestic abuse policy for its housing services in March 2026. This policy, designed to strengthen support for residents experiencing abuse, is a key deliverable within the council's Your Voice, Our Action improvement programme.
The Your Voice, Our Action programme is a comprehensive initiative by Tower Hamlets Council to address identified failings in its housing management services. This follows a Social Landlords Performance Report in July 2025 which stated that 20.1% of Tower Hamlets Council homes did not meet the Decent Homes Standard.
The council's Your Voice, Our Action programme aims to improve housing management services, ensure compliance with Consumer Standards, and prioritise residents' voices. It covers areas including governance, asset management, data, complaints, rents, and repairs, particularly damp and mould.
