    Governance and Viability ratings 

    We have been awarded, by the RSH, the highest possible G1 rating for Governance meaning we are well-governed and a V2 compliant grade for Financial Viability. V2 is a compliant grading and reflects that we have met the Regulator’s standards as well as the economic reality that the sector is under more pressure. 

    We will be continuing to focus on supporting tenants and improving homes and services while keeping Saffron safe and healthy for the future.
