Partnership

Partnership is the key to Homes for Islington’s commitment to improving housing for residents of Islington Council’s tenanted and leasehold properties.

 

Partnership working at Homes for Islington
Our partnerships are more than a trade relationship or legal contract. They are based on:

• Agreed objectives, common goals
• Good communications
• Mutual trust

This way of working allows HFI to develop better solutions faster and better services for customers.
