Housing Associations

Housing associations are private not-for-profit organisations that offer homes for people in need, and as such, provide an amazing service. As part of that service, housing association employees carry out an extremely varied set of tasks.

One of those tasks is the care of the landscape around the properties and to carry those jobs out safely, efficiently and on a regular basis your teams need to be fully training and qualified.

Let us help you, at no extra cost, to take some of the worries, stress and time off your shoulders by offering a straightforward, flexible service for those staff you oversee.
