What does being an ARLA member mean?

Accreditation
We aim to achieve accreditation locally in all the cities we operate in. Where an accreditation standard exists, we have developed good relationships with the universities and councils who run the system. This means that our tenants benefit from living in homes which are of a very high standard, and well managed by a skilled team.
Green
Global warming is the No.1 issue facing us. We have engaged with The Energy Saving Trust to reduce our carbon emissions in properties, through tenant's guides and practical measures. Most of our recently renovated houses to rent and flats to rent are renovated to a high standard, meaning emissions are cut by between 20% - 30%, reducing your energy bills and helping save the planet. We are in the process of switching all our propertiesd to rent to a green energy supplier, Scottish and Southern Electric.
How YOU can make a difference in your home.
The average carbon footprint of a UK home is apporximately 4.5 tonnes of CO2 per annum. You can help to reduce the emissions from your home and reduce your energy bills by following these simple steps:
- Turn electrical appliances off rather than leave them on standby.
- Unplug your mobile phone charger once finished.
- Shut blinds and close curtains at dusk to keep the heat in.
- Turn off lights in empty rooms.
- Wait for a full load and wash your clothes at 30 degrees.
- Tumble dryers are costly to run; use a clothes horse or washing line where you can.
- Take advantage of your boiler timer to set heat and water wisely.
- Reach for a jumper instead of turning up the thermostat.
- Avoid placing furniture in front of radiators.
- Have a shower rather than a bath whenever possible.
