THE TWO Rivers Housing has announced plans to bring its repairs team back in-house, with the transition set to take effect from April.

The move will see the closure of its facilities management company, Centigen Facilities Management Limited, which currently provides repairs, grounds maintenance, and cleaning services for the housing association.

Staff from Centigen are expected to transfer to Two Rivers Housing as part of the change, subject to consultation.

Chief Executive Hayley Selway, who has been in the role for a year, said the decision follows extensive discussions with tenants and staff about the current repairs service.

The move will also bring employment benefits, as the terms and conditions of Centigen staff will be reviewed and enhanced to align with the rest of the group.
