Fair Community Housing

Who We Are

The Fair Community Housing Services (FCHS) is a Tenant Management Organisation (TMO). In short, this means that FCHS is an organisation run by the residents and for the residents.

Anyone who lives in the properties listed below – council tenants, leaseholders or private tenants alike, can become a member of the Fair Community Housing Services TMO.

We are an independent company working in partnership with Southwark Council and manage the following properties:

  • Coxson Way
  • Devon Mansions
  • Fair Street
  • Hartland House
  • Lewes House
  • St Johns Estate
  • St Olaves Estate

The Management Committee

The membership fee is a one-off payment of 10p. At the annual general meeting (AGM), FCHS elects a Management Committee of 6-12 members. The members of the Committee are local residents who volunteer to donate some of their time towards the running of the estate.

The Committee’s role is to determine the strategic direction of the company and to guide staff towards achieving our goals and objectives.
The Committee employs staff to carry out the day-to-day running of management services on the estates.

The Legal Basis of the FCHS TMO

The governing documents of FCHS are the Modular Management Agreement(MMA) and the Rules. The MMA is an agreement between the Southwark Council and FCHS by which means the Council appoints FCHS as its agent to carry out certain housing management functions. The MMA is a comprehensive legal document which regulates the many aspects of delivering housing services by FCHS, and describes the relationship with Southwark Council and its tenants. The MMA can only be changed by an agreement between FCHS and the Council.

The Rules of FCHS is a much more concise document that sets out the governance structure of the organisation. It outlines the procedures for the membership of FCHS, its meetings, the powers of the Housing Committee etc. The Rules of FCHS can be only be changed by members at a General Meeting.
