Tenants are at the heart of every decision we make and we have a strong and successful history of Tenant participation and involvement. Our Strategic Objectives align with this as we strive to provide affordable, energy-efficient homes for mid and west-Wales residents. Supporting tenants during the current challenging financial climate is a priority, and we are committed to working with tenant groups to focus on Barcud’s aims. The Association strives to achieve the highest possible regulatory standards to support our vision.
