It's #TimeToTalkDay. 💭 One conversation can change a life. Time to Talk Day invites you to do something quietly radical: talk about mental health as part of everyday life. Led by @MindCharity and @Rethink_ Mental Illness, the day exists to make honest conversations feel normal instead of heavy, awkward, or reserved for moments of crisis.
It is the nation’s biggest mental health conversation. Take time today to open up and talk, or listen to those around you to help remove the stigma. Together we can make people feel comfortable enough to seek help if and when they need it.

We've turned another renter into a homeowner.
Working with our Tamar Housing Association/ Willow Tree Housing Partnership colleagues, one of our Yeovil tenants completed on their property yesterday. They moved in with £0 deposit just five years ago, paid an affordable rent, and yesterday, helped by the 10% Rentplus gifted sum on completion, became #homeowners. We wish them lots of luck in their 'new' home.🏡

A year ago Rentplus Homes was granted RP status by the Regulator of Social Housing. Our @rentplusceo, Steve Collins, reflects on a year of delivering for our @RentplusHomes tenants.

A year ago today the Regulator of Social Housing granted @RentplusHomes Regulated Provider status. Since then we have delivered our best ever TSM – tenant satisfaction measures – results, with 96% of tenants responding reporting satisfaction with the services provided by Rentplus Homes and 98% Satisfaction that Rentplus Homes listens to tenant views and acts upon them. Pretty chuffed with those results tbh.
Rentplus-UK knows how hard it is for today's homebuyers. Raising a deposit is the biggest barrier. That's why we eliminated it as a pathway to homeownership. Move in to a brand new home with £0 deposit, pay an affordable rent for 5-20 years (and your rent includes your service charges and repairs). And when you are ready to buy at years 5/10/15 or 20, Rentplus gifts you 10% towards your deposit. #RentSaveOwn #AffordableRentToBuy

Many in social housing, particularly in the SW, will know our Gareth from his @Rentplus_UK role but in his spare time, he and partner Sarah are a couple of superheroes. If you can, pop 'em the cost of a coffee to help raise funds for #MermaidCentreProject@RCHTWeCare. Thank you.

We all agree we need more social housing but in pockets of the country there remains a dogmatic reluctance to engage with institutional investment preventing our key and essential workers from achieving their homeownership dream.
For @Rentplus_UK to support @UKLabour’s ambition to deliver “the biggest increase in social and affordable housing in a generation”, we need local authorities to work with institutional investors like us so we can continue to turn renters into homeowners.

@BenTwomeyUK@AngelaRayner@genrentuk But as the government’s own figures show, 90++% of those in social housing aspire to be homeowners. @Rentplus_UK is turning renters into homeowners, taking them out of social housing and giving them the chance to own - and at no cost to the exchequer.
