Due to the minimal restrictions in place in Wales our services are operating as normal. Our Health & Safety guidance requests our staff to take a LFT should they have symptoms of the Coronavirus and self-isolate should they test positive. If you are worried about any of our staff visiting your home, you can request they wear a mask on entrance. We will continue to advise staff who are in close contact with our tenants to remain cautious and still undertake preventative measure to limit the chance of infection. We thank you for your understanding and patience.
Keeping you safe in your home remains our top priority.
Our services have now resumed to normal but we have taken extra precaution to ensure you stay safe while we visit your home to undertake any repairs.

If you are an employee and earn at least £118 a week, you are entitled to Statutory Sick Pay (SSP). Usually you must be off for at least four days in a row, but the Government has announced SSP will be paid from the first day if you are off sick and it is related to Coronavirus. If you’re not eligible for SSP, you might be able to claim other benefits.
