Specialist housing (our later living and supported schemes) is managed by a dedicated team.
We've increased the number of officers in our schemes, to make sure our more vulnerable customers receive the dedicated support they need, while ensuring a regular Hyde presence.
Later living schemes
We’ve brought in a new role called Housing Scheme Officer, replacing the existing Scheme Coordinator role.
Your Housing Scheme Officer:
- Carries out estate inspections
- Coordinates repairs and improvements with our contractors
- Tests emergency lighting testing in buildings with emergency lights
- Can support with your queries.
Supported schemes

Our Housing Scheme Officers and Supported Housing Officers will be champions for your area, and you’ll see them working in your area more often.
