Ensuring compliance

We are regulated by the Regulator of Social Housing, which monitors all registered housing providers in England. Our Board and Executive team are responsible for ensuring we comply with all regulatory consumer and economic standards, including for governance and financial viability, along with relevant laws including the Housing Ombudsman’s Complaint Handling Code.

Our Board members declare any conflicts of interest and these are updated annually and recorded on a register which is available for public scrutiny on request. Please email requests to: company.secretary@cottsway.co.uk

The following three measures are set by the Regulator and these tell you about the money we pay to directors in return for their work (remuneration), and what our management costs are compared to the number of homes we have.

‘Management costs’ covers everything we do, from service charges and repairs and maintenance through to investing in new homes and community and neighbourhood services, and more.

Measure Annual 2024-25
Remuneration payable to the highest paid director, relative to the size of the landlord £30.60 per home
Aggregate amount of remuneration paid to the directors, relative to the size of the landlord £101.40 per home
Management costs relative to the size for the landlord £1,550.70 per home

In the future, we’ll also compare our costs to those of similar-sized housing providers when there is information available for us to do this.

We also have a customer scrutiny group to allow our residents to scrutinise and challenge our work, and inform our decisions. For more details, see:
