Over our 15 years of specialising in social housing communications, Frontier PR has built a proud reputation for delivering value through creative thinking and hard work.

We have always embraced social housing as a unique environment, not least because it is rooted in people’s communities, homes, and lives, and this carries a special responsibility, both to our landlord clients and their residents and wider stakeholders.

Frontier PR has worked with around 25 social landlords over the years, engaging on everything from profile raising and crisis situations, to change management and community engagement.

This means we are living and breathing social housing and the evolving political, social, and technological forces that shape the industry, so we are set up to understand the challenges you face, and how to make communications part of the solution.

We also passionately believe that social landlords have a unique role to play in making our homes and cities smarter and more sustainable.

We are always happy to share examples of successful campaigns, or for the opportunity to talk satisfied clients, and we relish the chance to share our expert opinion.

We communicate to change

Although social housing is in many ways unrecognisable to the industry that Frontier PR first entered in 2008, some of the bigger issues and challenges continue to endure.

Top of the agenda remains balancing budgets whilst accelerating the supply of new homes and modernising and maintaining often older or outdated housing stock.

But things are changing fast, and social housing is increasingly at the heart of the smart home and smart city revolution.

Innovations in the shape of MMC, AI, smart and connected homes, and energy efficiency are tackling many key challenges such as housing supply, net-zero, home safety, and improving the ways that customers can engage with their landlord.

To be effective, communications strategies must be aligned with change, and the necessary skills and capacity must be in place to support an increasingly complex set of demands – and to make the most of emerging opportunities.

There’s a lot to talk about, so let’s get talking.
