MTVH

MTVH (Metropolitan Thames Valley Housing) is one of the UK’s leading providers of affordable housing and care and support services. We currently chair the G15 group of London’s largest housing associations – we influence policy for the benefits of our residents and the wider sector.

Our specialist areas include older people, mental health and transitional services which provide intensive support to marginalised or vulnerable people.

We deliver training programmes, events and activities for our residents, designed to boost employment opportunities and foster stronger communities.

At MTVH our whole ethos is based on the principle that everyone deserves a chance to live well.

A good, well-maintained and safe home is fundamental to achieving this. However, as a landlord we are striving to go beyond this traditional role and aim to support our residents and customers in more ways than providing a roof over their heads. One of our core aims is to help remove the barriers our residents may be facing which prevent them from living well.

Delivering care and support to our customers

Our particular specialisms where we provide support or care in addition to housing, are supported living for people with learning disabilities or autism, and people with mental health issues. We also provide extra care housing and care for older people. In addition, support is provided for people at points of transition in their lives – whether moving into a home from sleeping rough, or arriving to the UK as a new migrant.

Equality, diversity and inclusion in the workspace

MTVH is committed to becoming even more inclusive than we are already. We want all our colleagues to bring their authentic selves to work, to have a real sense of belonging and to have the security of knowing they can speak openly. Our core values are Care, Dare and Collaborate and we strive to live by them. It is important to us that all our residents, customers and colleagues feel included and we are working to create an environment where people are not afraid to challenge non-inclusive behaviours and everyone is mindful of their own and other’s wellbeing.

Please provide details of your procurement pipeline over the next 12/18 months. This does not have to be exact and a fully comprehensive list in the first instance. We will use it to  initiate activity on the system.

Overall, MTVH spends £391m with over 2,417 suppliers. Those suppliers assist the company to develop and maintain its property portfolio, ensuring customers receive the quality of housing they expect, and the high standards the company aspires to.

Reinvestment

Our 2021/22 performance on the regulator’s VFM metrics and against the 2021 G15 benchmark – investment in properties (existing stock as well as new supply) as a percentage of the value of total properties held was 3.9% and broadly consistent with the prior year.
