We are committed to building a brighter future by providing Herefordshire with quality homes for our current and future residents. As part of this commitment we have two new development sites that we will begin work on in the coming months.
Perrystone Lane, Tupsley
We have now received full
planning permission for a
new development scheme at
Perrystone Lane, Tupsley. The
scheme will consist of 17 homes
and will include 1&2 bed flats and
bungalows and 2, 3 & 4 bedroom
houses. 3 properties will be
available for Shared Ownership
and 14 will be affordable rent. We
expect to be on site this summer
and hope to be finished late
summer 2017.
Canon Pyon
We are currently working
in partnership with a local
contractor to deliver a scheme of
30 to 35 homes in Canon Pyon.
The scheme will be a mixture of
homes discounted for sale, shared
ownership, private rent and
affordable rent. We hope to start
on site in September of this year •
The Oval
Great progress has been made on
site in the past few months. So far
we have completed 60 properties
which have become homes to
our customers. We are pleased
to announce that a further 33
properties, flats in a new block
called Trevenant Court, will be
handed back to us in June 2016,
ready for our customers to move
into in the summer months.
Pomona Grove, Upton Bishop
We are delighted to announce that
our development in Upton Bishop
has been nominated for the Local
Authority Building Control Awards.
We have received nominations in
2 categories, “Exceptional Scheme”
and “Site Manager”. The site will
officially be opened in the
summer •
Proposed site plan of Perrystone Lane,
Tupsley development.

Discounted for sale scheme properties are properties on housing developments that are sold initially with a discount from their Open Market Value. This discount remains with the property through all subsequent sales.
Who can apply for this scheme?
This scheme is for anyone whose
income is not enough to enable
them to buy a property on the
open market, but is enough to buy
a property at a discounted price.
Applicants for these properties
must satisfy our eligibility criteria
which can include the following,
• You must not be able to afford
the Open Market Value of the
property but be able to afford
the discounted price
• Be a first time buyer
• Be a key worker e.g nurse,
teacher
• Have a local connection within
the Herefordshire area
However, this is only a general
guide as each scheme has its
own criteria.
How do we work out the rate of
discount on one of these homes?
Before the first sale of one of
these properties an assessment
will be made about the Open
Market Value and a percentage
calculation produced to give its
particular reduction. This results in
an “affordable purchase price”. This
percentage off OMV is then written
into the title documents. This
agreement, while allowing you to
own your own home, protects the
property itself by limiting its future
sale price so the next buyer can
also afford the property.
For more information please

on 0300 777 4321 •

• Anniversary of tenancy
surveys and information
updates
Why are we doing these surveys?
We want to know how we can
make our services better, so
we are contacting you to find
out. We want to know what you
think about us, our services, your
home and your neighbourhood.
We also want to make sure that
the information we hold about
you is correct. We know that
from time-to-time your personal
details, contact details or
important information about your
circumstances might change,
but you might have forgotten to
tell us about it. We also want to
understand how we can support
you by understanding your
particular circumstances around
work and finances. We have
many services that are available
including Job Club, The Learning
Box, Financial Inclusion. Voluntas
help us by contacting you by
phone to ensure that your details
are up to date, we will only do this
once every 2-3 years.
Having this information will allow
us to provide the best possible
services to you.
We really do appreciate your time
answering these questions and
thank you for helping us with our
surveys •
We would like to reassure our customers that calls from Voluntas are legitimate and that they are contacting you on our behalf. Voluntas are an independent organisation with a team of professional market researchers trained to deal with your call.

Universal Credit and your responsibilities
Universal Credit are aware of their current rent charge. If you are in receipt of Universal
Credit, you will need to take
your rent charge letter to the
jobcentre to advise them of the
recent change in your rent.
If you would like any further help
or advice regarding preparing for
Universal Credit please contact
one of the Financial Inclusion
Team on 0300 777 4321.
Alternatively you can visit the
government website.
https://www.gov.uk/universal-
credit/overview
Universal Credit (UC) is replacing the 6 existing separate benefits (Housing Benefit, Job Seekers Allowance, Income Support, Employment and Support Allowance, Child Tax Credit and Working Tax Credit).
UC has now been live in
Herefordshire since March
2015 but currently only affects
single jobseekers. We expect
more complex claims, including
couples, families and those unfit
for work, to be introduced to
Herefordshire at some point in
2017. Existing benefit claimants
(such as those in receipt of
ESA and JSA) will start to be
transferred over to UC from
2018.
One of the key features of Universal Credit is that the
amount paid towards rent (known as the Housing Element) is paid directly to you, the customer. This allows
customers to have more control
of their income and be more
responsible for paying their rent.
As a result, it is important
that you give UC up to date
information about your
household circumstances and
rent costs. It is essential that customers make sure that
Recent Changes

including benefit freezes, and changes to

tenancy fraud
Cracking down on
What is tenancy fraud?
Tenancy fraud is a criminal
offence and it can present
itself in different forms. It can
also happen at any stage in a
tenancy. Examples of tenancy
fraud include:
• Fraudulently obtaining
a tenancy (e.g. through
misrepresentation of identity
or circumstances)
• Non-occupation by the
tenant as their principal
home
• Unlawful subletting (e.g.
subletting the whole
property to a single
household or multiple
sublets within one property)
• Wrongly claimed succession
• Unauthorised assignments
• ‘Key selling’ (where the
tenant leaves the property
and passes on the keys in
return for a one-off lump
sum payment or favour)
• Not notifying the landlord
when the tenant moves out
or passes away
It is estimated that tenancy
fraud costs UK taxpayers at
least £900 million per year and
affects tens of thousands of
families who are in desperate
need of social housing.

What are we doing to tackle this?
We want to ensure that our
homes are let to the right
people and we will be clamping
down on tenancy fraud. We
will now be carrying out more
stringent checks on our tenants
to see who is living in our
properties as well as checking
out the people applying for our
homes and tenants applying to
buy their homes.
The punishments
Tenancy fraud is a criminal
offence and carries many
penalties and punishments. The
maximum penalty for a first
offence is a fine of £5,000. The
second, more serious offence,
is punishable by a two-year
jail sentence and/or a fine of
up to £50,000. The court will
also have the power to make
“unlawful profit orders” that
require the tenant to pay back
any profits “the court considers
appropriate”.
Contact us
If you believe that you know
someone who is committing
tenancy fraud then please
contact the Neighbourhood
Action Team on
0300 777 4321 or via our
website www.hhl.org.uk. Any
information will be treated in
the strictest confidence •

Changing the way we
deliver our services
On the 30th June 2016 we will be closing our two area offices, Jubilee Court and Widemarsh Street.
By closing these two area
offices, we are enabling our
Neighbourhood Teams to
be more mobile within the
community and ultimately bring
their services to you at home.
You will still have a dedicated
Neighbourhood Officer who
will support you in your
neighbourhood and you can still
visit us at our Office at Legion

lot of work. The types of work
we have to undertake includes:
• Removing household rubbish
e.g. food stuffs, furniture,
clothing, electrical items
• Cleaning the property
throughout due to filthy
conditions
• Clearing gardens and sheds
• Repairing damaged items e.g.
kitchen units, internal doors,
gates, fences
• Painting and decorating
throughout
We expect our tenants to leave
the property and garden in a
good state of repair. This will
require emptying the home
completely, replacing any
damaged items, cleaning the
property and clearing the
garden. If this does not happen,
the costs associated with any
work we have to do will be re-
charged back to the outgoing
tenant or their estate. It is
therefore vital that while you
live within one of our properties
you do not misuse or damage
it. Last year we recharged
residents in excess of £76,000.
If you are moving to another
one of our properties we will
always carry out an inspection
of your home before you leave.
If you home fails this inspection
you will not be able to move
into your new home. In addition
if you owe us money, through
either rent arrears or recharges
associated with the condition of
your home, you will not be able
to bid on another home until
the debt is cleared.
If you have any questions
please speak to our Property
and Assets Team on
0300 777 4321 •
To Let
If you decide to end your tenancy with us or one of our customers sadly passes away, the property will become vacant.
When this happens the vacant
property is handed back to our
Property Team who inspect it
and establish what work, if any,
is needed to be done before
this property can be re-let.
Last year we had 446 vacant
properties and spent in excess
of £790,000 having to bring
these properties back to a
lettable state.
The majority of our properties
are left in a good condition and
have been well looked after,
however some are often left in
awful conditions and require a

We are committed to ensuring that your homes are modern and safe to live in. As part of this commitment approximately every 5 years our surveying team need to inspect your home to ensure that any improvement works required are logged and scheduled into our Improvements Programme.
Our surveyor will need to inspect the kitchen, bathroom, roof space – including loft, doors and windows and generally have access around the
outside of the building to check the structure. They may also ask to take photos, you have the right to refuse if you so wish.
Where we can, we will let you know when we plan to visit your property but if our surveyors are in your area and your property is scheduled for a survey, they may call unexpectedly. Please be assured that this is a genuine call – our surveyors will always carry with them full Herefordshire Housing ID badges – please ensure that you ask to see this before allowing them into your home. If you are unsure please contact us on 0300 777 4321.

new signage for the area so
that anyone wanting to visit the
beautiful park area could find it
Southgate Court Resident
Group – this active group asked
for funding to help buy plants,
fencing, paint and edging bricks

asked for our help to fund new
play equipment and safety
surfaces for their improved play
area
Belmont Wanderers FC – this
girl’s football club asked for us
to fund warm hoodies for the
teams to train in the bad weather
– 6 football teams are now a lot
warmer
We are pleased to announce that last year we allocated £15,000 from the Community Grant Fund to help benefit local community groups and organisations in Herefordshire.
To qualify the groups and
organisations had to deliver
projects, events or run activities
that benefitted Herefordshire
Housing residents and the wider
community. They also had to
have an income of less than
£10,000.
We had a variety of applications
and we would like to thank
everyone who took the time to
apply, (please note all funding
has now been allocated.)
Here are some of the groups
we were able to help.
Stretton Sugwas Lunch Club
– this group were in need of
a plate warmer for their busy
lunch club meetings. The Group
provides hot lunches to over 40
people a month and trying to
keep the food hot was proving
really difficult.
Much Dewchurch Village Hall
Committee – The village hall
was in need of a new kitchen,
the hall is well used for a variety
of functions by the whole
community and the old 1970’s
kitchen was not fit for purpose.
